Before DD was born, I'd sometimes treat myself to a very girly kit to scrap photos of myself with my boys. Since most of us probably need to be in our own albums more, I think you should get it as incentive!

I'm afraid I wouldn't scrap myself with it, but I still really really want it.... I may just take the leap and buy it at the end of the month.

I always feel like if *I* am in the photo, there are no boyish restrictions. Scrap a page about your relationship with your boys...or your mom...or your bff...or your childhood.

IT'S SOOOOOOOO PRETTY! I grabbed it and can't wait to scrap with it. I mean, KCB and Zoe together? {swoon} Add Nicole and Allie, and it's like that brownie-stuffed chocolate chip cookie on KevinandAmanda's blog, but with ice cream and chocolate syrup too.

HAHAHA!!! Love the visual!!

P.S. Just grab it! Kellie's totally right. Just have you in the pictures with your boys. There are WAY too many girly kits out there that I would be sad to not use cause they are so fun and this one is definitely one of them!!!

Dang it. Now I want it, too. lol I wanted it before, but talked myself out of it as I have a boy, too. I agree with the the other girls though, I use them for pictures of me with my son. Mother's Day is coming up, I always try to get a picture of us together that day.

I always love a good challenge

Forgive the preview (did it super fast while waiting for eggs to boil :P) but I couldn't help to show that this kit can be quite boy friendly as well. Was a sin to take out zoe's amazing floral paper but I wanted to show you very boy friendly (i still think that floral should be used though. haha)



(again just a super quick preview - yes i realize the pendant banner is totally not in the right place :P)

Okay, that totally would have sold me if I was looking for a boy kit! Awesome!

Mothers day is coming up. You could scrap about your mother/grandmother/relationship you have with your boys/what you like or don't like about being a mother/ a list of things you said you'd never do before you had kids but did once you had them / list of women who inspire you.

Hmm I can't think of any more right now.

Dang! Now that I see Kristens preview I want this. I get overwhelmed by predominately pink or girly kits. It makes them easy to skip. If more designers did this, I would be a goner!

I have 2 boys. I am surrounded by boy all the time. Also, I am not very girly to begin with. I still grabbed Carefree Days, however, because I wanted to use it for my Easter pics from this weekend. I am making an awesome 2-page Project Life spread with it, and the kit is fantastic. You need no convincing just b/c you have boys... IMO if you want it, you'll scrap with it. And if you scrap with it, even if it's not boyish, you're preserving your memories for your kids. Done and done. Have fun playing with it! haha
