Welcome to the Echo Park Paper Design Team Blog Hop!
Today the Echo Park Paper Design Team is showcasing projects from our latest collections. I chose to share this layout using the Family Man kit:
I had this photo of Brad and Seth from 2006, just waiting to be scrapbooked.
It’s so true – Brad is such a good Dad. I had a friend comment recently that she’d seen Brad jumping on the trampoline with the kids and she thought he must be such a fun dad. He is truly a great dad … & way more fun than me!!!
I thought the mix of ties and tools were a fun little addition to the corner! :o)

ReplyDeletethis is so cute!!! thanks for a fun!:)
ReplyDeleteThe good thing about fathers is that they make us feel like their little girls no matter how old we are=)
ReplyDeleteAwesome job...love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great layout! Thanks for sharing~
ReplyDeleteMy amazing husband is also a WONDERFUL Daddy! I love watching him with our girls, he has taught the oldest to fish and at six she now catches more than Daddy when they go fishing, LOL! Next he's going to teach the 3 year old too!
ReplyDeleteMy dad is a great grandpa. We visited him for a few days and my kids had a blast! He is quite the gardener, baseball player, golfer, fisherman and hunter. My kids (and I actually) always learn great things when spending time with him!
ReplyDeleteMy husband is an amazing dad! I love watching him play with the kids, he lights up their eyes when he comes home from work! I love your layout, it's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMy dad is an awesome dad. He had two girls but chose to make us well rounded individuals. We were never told we couldn't do something because we were girls. He took us fishing, we helped work on cars, and we went to car shows, etc. Now he's a gramps to my nephew and it's so fun to see him be a grandparent. smiles all around. I wish Echo Park had made this a Regular collection but it's still great as a mini theme. love it!
ReplyDeleteMy dad knows that he missed out on a lot of stuff when my siblings and I were younger due to having to work and support the family. He has made it a point not to let that happen with his grandkids and enjoys babysitting to get to spend time with them. I love the masculine layout you did. I struggle with masculine themed projects....I guess I just don't have the right papers! TFS!
ReplyDeleteLoving your layout! I love the twine wrapped across the top of the page, the tools and ties together and the title! So cute! My dad is amazing because he has my same sense of humor. We can laugh for hours and never get sick of it. What a great quality to have!
ReplyDeletemy dad is super cool he knows a lot of stuff like electronics and mechanicals, very handy dandy. I love to see him draw he's very good at it, my sister and brother got his talent in drawing. I'm his number 1 fan even at fixing cars. Beautiful layout using the collection.

Wonderful page! My husband is unique because he works hard at his regular job as an IT guy and still finds the energy to be a FANTASTIC woodturner. He also helps me so much! Thanks for a chance to win!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy dad is awesome because so often he knows the answers to whatever questions I have, whether it's a medical question or something about wiring or woodwork!
ReplyDeleteLove this collection. My hubby is full of integrity and has shown my boys in recent decisions how to make the right choices no matter what. I love that he is an example of the way they should live their lives.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! My husband does a great job of letting lose and getting goofy with our son! He has the ability to get him out of a funk, where I just try to reason, with a 5 year old!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great layout! Those daddy/ child moments are so special!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful LO!! My hubby can always make our son laugh, they have such a special bond!! He's an amazing father in SO many ways!! My dad is super easy-going and always treats me and my sisters like princess' (still, even now that we're adults lol)!!

DeleteWhat am awesome giveaway. Love your layout too. Thank you for a chance.
ReplyDeleteMy husband makes a great dad because he always wants to be out and doing something. I'm more of a homebody in many ways, so it's good for them to see the other side of the coin.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your LO! I love the ties and wrench in the corner! I think it's very clever visually!
Great layout! Love the ties+wrench "banner".
ReplyDeleteMy hubby sounds like yours - he lives to have fun with the kids! He's the one who takes them on the roller coasters, plays frisbee, soccer or bocce ball with them outside, takes them for bike rides...the kids laugh (and yes, sometimes roll their eyes - they are preteens!) at his antics. Me, I just smile and laugh and thank my lucky stars that he's such a great dad for our kids. :)
What a great LO---It actually makes me choke up! :) We're lucky to have great guys as the dads to our kids!
ReplyDeleteLove your page! My Dad even at the age of 86 still comes and prunes my rose bushes!!
ReplyDeletewhat a great paper line for men! nice lo and great job!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love how you scrapped your hubby and son with this collection. It's just perfect and I really like the colors!
ReplyDeleteCute page!
ReplyDeleteMy DH is an amazing son. His father passed away, so now he takes care of his mother. Every weekend he goes out and buys her groceries, mows her lawn, does her dishes, cooks for her, and anything else she needs. He drives out to her house ( she lives in a different community than us), and puts out her garbage for collection. She has other sons who live much closer,and do much less. I am VERY proud of him!
ReplyDeleteSomehow I completely missed this collection--I'm going to have to hunt it down!
ReplyDeleteMy Dad, what makes him unique? That he is tough as leather to everyone but me. Calls me punkin. Still, and I'm going to be 34 in a few days.
This kit is very masculine. Love it! My dad is in his 70s but he's more like a big kid. He's funny and naughty!! He likes to play tricks on me and my family... ;)
ReplyDeleteOn the last leg of my hop around I found the cutest card for a lucky man right here. Think I can manage just a little crawl-hop over to subscribe.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you chose "Family Man"! I really love this line and love everything you did with it! The ties and wrench in the upper right hand corner are awesome! Well done! Pinning and subscribing!
ReplyDeleteLove your page, the colours in this line are great. My kids always pester my husband to play chasey with them, he might not admit it but he loves it as much as them!
ReplyDeleteMy hubby does character voices.
ReplyDeleteYour layout is wonderful! My dad passed away long ago but the thing I always remember about him was his sweet tooth (which I inherited!). He used to love to make us banana splits...complete with several flavors of ice cream and toppings, whipped cream and nuts!
ReplyDeleteHe is nursing 15 kittens hatched by feral cats at his car lot!!!! LOL We have dogs so he must care for them there! They can play now and every morning he gets to work and they have torn up his office!! 3 more weeks til old enough for homes! hahahahahahaha

ReplyDeleteMy Dad is 81 and still comes down to plant beautiful border plants in my flowerbed every year. I tell him he should be taking life easy and to plant perennials but every year he comes and plants what he likes and makes my garden beautiful.
ReplyDeletelove the collection and your LO.
My husband is a very loving and caring person. Right now he is helping me get things together for my garden.
ReplyDeletelove that EP is highlighting more masculine lines; they are always hard to find. Fun thing about my dad who is no longer with me. Once came home from shopping with my mom and walked up the walkway with a paper bag on his head, aka "the unknown comic"; funny!a nd the best dad ever! and thanks for the reminder of the good times
ReplyDeleteAww great job!
ReplyDeleteLove your layout! My hubby is such a prankster which leaves us as a household with no dull moments...to say the least :)

ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I love how my hubby's loving spirit can be seen in my 2 1/2 year old twins :)
ReplyDeleteLove the LO and the embells!!! I love how my DH is already asking my 3.5yo DD for advice on what shirts go with which pants. He's colorblind, so he is always asking my advice also, but when he asks her, she loves it.
ReplyDeleteLove the ties and the tools!! Great LO!!
ReplyDeleteThanks!!
SO sweet:)
ReplyDeleteSweet layout!! Love all of the layers and the pieces up popped up!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun masculine paper! Great work!
ReplyDeleteMy dad is wonderful (i'm sure all you think that) he always taught me to be strong, to keep going no matter what, to be better and want more. He is a fighter and I'd love to be more like him every day.
ReplyDeleteMy husband is the very best Grampa in the world. Our grandchildren just adore him. He plays with them the entire time they are with us (which we are very fortunate that it is often)what ever they want to do no is never an answer. I could not ask for a better husband!

My husband is a great father and grandfather. From playing doll babies to wrestling he's very hands on with the kids and I never got up with them at night that he didn't get up with me.
ReplyDeleteGreat layout.

Linda Hagerty said: Something that makes my husband unique is he is quite crafty and artistic in his own ways and once scrapbooked me a page! Love the Echo Park new collections and your project was spectacular!
ReplyDeleteFantastic projects. Love the tools and ties. It would be so much fun to win these goodies. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteMy husband is not afraid to go around town w/his nails painted bright yellow w/minions painted on them! Our 7 y/o did a great job too! He loves to coach our daughter's soccer team as well as be the VP of our soccer club. He honestly takes great care of all of us girls (including Gramma now too!)
ReplyDeleteGreat masculine page. I especially love the twine and the tape measure. thanks for the chance to win!

Wonderful layout! My husband always makes me laugh and never meets a stranger. I love that about him.
ReplyDeleteGreat layout, love the boy's colors.
ReplyDeleteThat photo just shouts out "dad" ... love, strength, protectiveness ... and what a great pic to showcase all the Echo Park products. Really creative! Thanks so much for sharing with us.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great layout! Love the banner strip and the use of the circles as a scallop edge.
ReplyDeleteMy dad doesn't really have a sense of humor. The entire family can be laughing at something and he would look at us and say "what's so funny about that". That comment would always get us all laughing again.
Great photo and lovely layout!
ReplyDeleteLOve the look of this collection.
ReplyDeleteHubby is an outdoors man and hunter/gatherer, I love the way he takes the time to show his wee grandsons all the important things and know he will continue to teach them for as long as he is able to do so.
Awesome collection and I love your layout! My dad is a wonderful man who loves his family and sacrificed a great deal for us.I am so glad to still have him and that he is strong and healthy at the age of 80.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful page !! TFS!!
ReplyDeleteGREAT job with this layout. This collection was PERFECT for your page. Thanks for sharing as much as you do. I love being inspired by you!

ReplyDeletethere are so many neat things on this layout! I love the wrench hanging down with the ties, great idea!
