A first ever motorbike ride...

There are many firsts I have of Harry just in the past two months, so the scrapbooking challenge over at Just Add Ink was  a perfect title to start these pages off, so todays page I have to show you is about Harrys first motorbike ride in november last year, he loved it, though my cousin made sure he went super slow as firstly it was his first time, and secondly yep there was no helmet, but all the same, Harry loved his little trip around the property in Noosa.  We visited my grandparents there.

One other thing I am going to try and do this year is use up my stash of goodies no matter what brand they are, so you will be seeing some different stuff hopefully this year from me.

the background is crumb cake base, then a beautiful green colour layered on the top, it doesn't look too green in this photo but it is quite a muted mint type colour, those who are familiar with the my minds eye papers will know the green of this paper - I adore it.  Then there is a tiny piece of printed paper behind the tear, just enough to break up the plainness a little.  Added a little staple too for some added interest.

I had this cute embellishment in my stash, so I cut off the edges of one end, added a 1/2" circle punchie, then punched a whole through that punchie with my cropadile to turn it into a tag, added some twine, put a slit each side of the arrow so that the photo slid behind it,  and its a super cute masculine tag.  I stamped the motorcycle stamp onto some crumb cake cardstock cut it out and tucked it above the tag for an extra embellishment.

Deets: stamps, twine, punches and title using the big shot machine are Stampin' Up!, Papers and embellishments are my minds eye.

Come back soon, I have another 3 layouts scheduled to show you in the upcoming days, I spent the week before christmas and New year trying to get up to date with my scrap booking and I think I am halfway there woo hoo.
