Scrap the Boys - November

I rarely participate in the Scrap the Boys challenges. Not having any boys of my own to scrap, other than GB (who hates having his photo taken!) I'm usually short of photos to scrap. However recently GB bought me the coolest photo organiser I've ever seen and whilst organising some photos I came across a photo of him with our old dog Max at the beach. I really wanted to scrap it and the colour swatch that is the challenge at Scrap the Boys this month seemed to be a perfect fit ..

Here's my LO ..
