Hello scrappers! My name is Aphra, and I live down South in Louisiana with my Alaskan oil man Jeff and our two boys, Jonathan (10) and Ethan (3). While my husband is tromping around in the Alaskan tundra for weeks at a time, I'm home working part-time at a doctor's office, chasing around two rowdy boys and our miniature dachshund Max, and staying up into the wee hours of the night scrapbooking.
I fell in love with this hobby back in 2000 when my oldest son was born, and I get more and more addicted with each new product release. It's my passion, my creative outlet, my sanity! Mostly, I create layouts of my family, but I also enjoy making cards, gifts, and decor. Honestly, I will use any excuse to get to scrapbook!

I was so excited to receive the Fern collection. It is a dream for a momma scrapping two boys. The colorful papers and playful patterns are just perfect for any of my scrappy occasions.
For my Dream card, I used a kraft cardstock base and two of the fun Fern patterns. Then, I just used several of the Life's A Hoot stickers to adorn the card: the blue border, the brown scallop, scalloped owl circle, and scalloped dream circle. The finishing touch was a strip of Dotty Ribbon.
This layout was inspired by the Owl Hoot B paper. The cute owls perched on the circle trees were just begging to be fussy cut, so I obliged.
I added a few brads and a couple more Life's A Hoot stickers, my title, and some journaling and the layout was done.
I'll be back tomorrow with my Life's A Hoot Pink project. Hope to see you then!
