scrap the boys challenge August 2010

Scrap the boys' challenge is a page with flowers, and your boy, perhaps showing his feminine side. I think I have managed to do both.   I was inspired by Shell at Easily Distracted of her use of a flower on the edge of a circle, on her page 'Apple of my eye',  and the flowers I used were made by Becci at http://beccisscrapjournal.blogspot.com/, which I won in her first giveaway.

My journalling reads: My pretty boy, Hayden, July 2009, aged 3 1/2 wearing the dress Jasmine wore when she was a similar age.  He has lots of feminine influence from his three big sisters - funny, pretty boy.

Whoo has a giveaway?
