Well although it says there is no need to go with a Christmas layout mine is - sort of. The photos are of my youngest grandson trying to show me, in the unique way of a one year old, what was inside the first window of his Playmobil Advent calendar. So cute!
I matched my paper choices to the colours of the photos rather than the Christmas theme and built up a grid using 2" squares. I then added some machine stitching just outside the edges.
Once the photos were stuck in position I then got creative with adding embellishments, words and stickers. And my title reads straight into the journalling. I flicked some watered down white ink top left and bottom right and used a stencil to get some watery snowflakes there too.
Supplies:
Ppaers: SC kraft card; Polkadoodles, Peeling Paint; SU, Feels Like Frost; scraps from my stash
Alphas: Pink Fresh Studio, Just a Little Lovely; Echo Park, Winter Park
Dies: Lawn Fawn, outside in hearts
Stencil: Uniko, Let It Snow
Ink: SU, whisper white
Stickers: Doodlebug Design Inc, Dragons Tails; Bella Blvd, Secrets of the Sea; Pinkfrsh Studio, Every Day Musings
