Hello friends!  Jennifer on the blog today to share a layout I created with the new Lil Dude collection! Who doesn't appreciate a good boy line? Lil Dude knocks it out of the park with its bold, bright colors and prints! The coordinating embellishments have enough mix of "boy" to range from toddler to teen!  Photos of my son when he was 6 years old  playing with Hot Wheels were perfect to use with Lil Dude!

I  used my Silhouette to cut different sizes of circles from my favorite patterns to layer across my white cardstock background. I  then clustered my photos in the center of my page matting with cardstock to help them "pop" against the colors. 

I  used a circle frame, again cut from my Silhouette, to position my title.  Using foam dots, I adhered the bright letter stickers from the Combo Sticker Sheet. I  then accented with additional stickers found on the same 12x12 Sheet.  I  am loving the new addition of the Puffy Stickers!  You can see the miniature stars as well as small arrow; you receive two sheets in each package!

I  love using the 3x4 Elements for my journaling especially since there is almost always a ledger/notebook print included!  I  accented with a cute star cardstock sticker as well as more Puffy Stickers!

The Bits and Pieces pack is always full of a large variety of shapes as well as journaling spots such as the one seen here. I  used a date stamp in my stash and added a bright blue chipboard star. You can also spy a mini circle sticker found on one of the 4x6 Sticker Sheets...and yes, more Puffy Stickers! 

The B side of "Hear Me Roar" is probably one of my favorite prints of the collection!  I  am a huge fan of plaid and am loving the black and white. You can even note the hint of type as well!  For this circle, I  added a cute pennant from the Bits and Pieces as well as additional stars.  

Thank you for stopping by the blog today!  Check out the collection in its entirety by going to the Products page. You can also see all of the new, exciting Simple Stories collections coming soon!  Have a great day!
