Dotty Layout For the Boys in Your Family

OK, yes, I'm still hooked on the "Dotty For You" paper. It has so many designs and there is so much you can do with it.

I know a beautiful young woman who has four boys. Her scrapbooks are gorgeous, by the way, but with four boys, she tends to stay away from the more feminine paper and such. I'm not going to mention any names, but you know who you are, Kari Watts! OOPS!

Anyway, I thought I'd make a couple more boyish layouts for her perusal!




Kari also makes her layouts to order - meaning she knows what pictures she is going to use, but these give you a pretty good idea of what else you can do with the Dotty paper. Remember, it's $5 for 24 sheets of double sided B & T paper, with an order of $35! Just click on "Shop With Me" if you'd like to order.
