Your fussy cutting amazes me. I love the striped paper with the flowers. The title does reflect your family.

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you, Deepa! Fussy cutting is just so relaxing for me, I sometimes forget I need to leave papers to scrap with!

What an absolutely sweet layout! I love your play on words to bring in the prompt & I love that you used flowers for a Father's Day layout What many don't realize is that many men actually like flowers. My step-father loved them. Before he started working for the postal service, he worked at a nursery & when he retired, he worked part-time delivering flowers for a florist. I loved riding with him to deliver flowers. That vehicle always smelled so nice. He also had his flower beds at home that he loved. So I don't find that unusual at al but I do realize many think you need to have masculine layouts for men.

Thank you, Julia! I agree! I definitely think that part of the disconnect is what is considered "appropriate" for men vs women in our society (which I think is ridiculous). My Dad was a mechanic and wasn't a fan of flowers, but I have absolutely used flowers on layouts he's in. My husband is a tech guy, doesn't mean I have to put techy things on all of his layouts!

Right!

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you very much, Louise! This one came together so quickly!

[@lynettelemon9274]

I love the way you have interpreted the sketch and incorporated a 'heart' into your layout! Very creative and such a gorgeous layout 💖

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you very much, Lynette! I am hoping to get a large heart shape soon so that I can create a chipboard template, but until then, circle it is!

Thank you very much, Tania! Loved this painted stripe paper and had to get it on a layout in a big way!

Absolutely a lovely family photo

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you, Gina! It's tricky to get the whole crew to cooperate, but I'm so thankful we have photos like this!

Love your take on the sketches like the use of the word heart. Cute layout. TFS

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you very much, Iris! This was such a fun sketch to play with, loved the big floral cluster down the right side in particular!

[@ellengates4005]

Amazing layout!! Beautiful, great use of florals (even if this is a Father's Day photo). Actually, this may be my favorite of the Scraptember prompts. Well done. Thank you for the detail in this one.

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you very much, Ellen! Yes! I don't often use florals for masculine layouts, but for this one it worked!

[@pamnichols4268]

Husband’s like that are hard to find glad I got one also

So true, Virginia! I tease my husband that if he ever dies, I'm not replacing him. He's one of a kind!
