Bobby's 1st Birthday Layout

For my  nephew Bobby's 1st Birthday my sister Kelly gave him a Thomas the Tank Engine birthday party.

What little boy or girl doesn't love Thomas. 

My kids did, and still do.

For Bobby's Birthday layout I wanted to match his theme and his invitation.

Anytime I scrapbook a Birthday or Party, the invitation is what dictates my color choice.

Thomas the Tank Engine has 3 colors that I see when I close my eyes. Red, Blue and Yellow.

So this is what I came up with.

I used:

Yellow, Red, and Blue card stock

Thomas the Tank Engine stickers

1 sheet of Thomas the Tank 12 x 12 paper

Red mesh

Black Ink

Celebrate with Flourish Cricut Cartridge

I have a plastic drawer set, that I labeled with years, and every time I get a birthday invitation or memorabilia that I want to add to my scrapbook, I put it in a plastic ziploc with date and brief description and I put it in the drawer for that year. I date my drawers by grouping years. Such as 2008, 2009, 2010, it makes it easier  to find what i need when i start scrapbooking.
