When I saw this cut file created by Gwen from CUT to YOU , I knew there were so many photos of my little man that I could use this with and I had to have it. I cut it with my Brother Scan n Cut on black smooth card stock. The majority of the layout is made using the Cocoa Vanilla Boys Rule collection, with the exception of the yellow paper backing the digger, which is B side of the Happy Snaps paper from the Totally Rad collection and the don't Grow Up it's a trap ephemera piece from the same collection. This layout come together quickly due to the awesome cut file and fabulous Cocoa Vanilla products. I really love how it turned out and hope this gives you some boy scrapping inspiration!

August welcomes in my first Scrap the Boy layout as part of the Design Team, which I'm thrilled to be part of such an inspiring and supportive community!   http://scraptheboys.blogspot.com/ The mood board for the August challenge, got me thinking about city life and how luck we are to have such amazing cafes in Melbourne. I couldn't help but scrap my darling boy casually sipping on his bubba chino out the front of our favourite Melbourne cafe. I had never tried a monochromatic grayscale layout before, but I really enjoyed the challenge. I used the Globe Trotter cut file from the lovely Virginia Walker over at Confessions of a Paper Addict (check out her etsy shop:  https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/COAPACutfiles?ref=notif_nfyfs&order=date_desc ). I cut the design on my Brother Scan n Cut from black cardstock, the background paper is Good Times from the Boys Rule collection from Cocoa Vanilla Studio and the embellishments are from a variety of boys collection
