The Rock Crawler

I have been guilty of stalking over at The Boxx now for a little while..love some of the challenges and this fortnight I HAD to give it a go.  Jodie Butler challenged us to go into the gallery and scraplift anyone's layout.  Of course that was hard as there are so many gorgeous layouts sitting in there but as a HUGE fan of Julie Winks work I went eenie meeny miney mo...and chose this one...

Here is my version of Jules's gorgeous layout....

The Rock Crawler - DH has always wanted a rock crawler so for Christmas last year, the boys and I gave this to him...and what a great present it has turned out to be...the boys (little and big!) have hours of fun down at the botanic gardens in amongst the rock beds with this thing!! Brad can't wait for his boys to get a little bit older and they can have their own and do this together!


Using a yummy prima...these type would have to be my fav, some gorgeous Dusty Attic chipboard with I just misted and love the 3D butterflies by K&C Company.


Thanks for stopping by :))
Hope you all have a great day :))

    Well you taught me what a rock crawler was as I had never heard of it. Boys are never too big for toys are they?
    I just LOVE this Min. Wow, you have lifted Julie's LO perfectly but with so much of your touch. Luuuuurve it.
