I saw a digi layout in Somerset Memories that I loved loved loved...so I decided to try to recreate it. This is my sweet first born DS (Michael) just before he turned 2....he had fallen asleep with a Christmas coloring book in front of him...he looks so sweet. I cropped the picture and then enhanced it to look like a charcoal sketch. The papers are a mix of K&Co, My Minds Eye and card stock.
Plantin was used to cut all the rectangles and squares....Winter Woodland for the branch, A Child's Year for the holly and some gold pearl paint to accent the berries.
The large flower is a cut from Storybook....I added some craft stain to the edges of the papers to distress them a bit.
He, Christmas and the list were all computer generated. Dreams is the Winter Woodland font and of is from Storybook. The butterfly is a sketch I downloaded and then chalked and stickled...wish you could see all the sparkle!
The snowflakes are also from Winter Woodland....I am really pleased with the way this turned out and will do something similar for all of my boyssss...thanx for stopping by....I so appreciate you!
