Happy Friday everyone! Today is reveal day at SOUS and this weeks sketch is a beauty....I chose a picture of my 2 oldest boys from Christmas past...don't they look dapper in their little Christmas coats....so cute. I chose Once Upon a Time DCWV paper for the background and instead of adding another paper I chose a ribbon accent along the side. I made the poinsettia from Lyrical Letters and once again the lovely rose from Home Decor. The snowflakes are from A Child's Year and I purchased the little silver metallic ones. The mat is from A Child's Year with a few pearl paint drops around the edge. I downloaded Away In A Manger sheet music to add behind the pic. Click HERE to go to the site....they have lovely illustrations and I will be using it alot for holiday layouts I'm sure.
These little branches are also from Home Decor and I used my Martha Stewart branch punch to add the greenery.
A few gold and icicle stickles to add some glimmer.
I adore these little K&Co mini frames and they work so well on layouts.... the Love is cut from Home Decor too. Hop on over to SOUS to see what the other DT members created and come have some fun with this wonderful sketch!
