I am so excited about this layout! I won the honor of being a guest designer for <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Sketchy-Boards-Challenge-288160934691295/?fref=ts" target="_blank">Sketchy Boards Challenge</a> and I was thrilled to get the opportunity. Heidi supplied me with an amazing sketch and inspiration picture, and I knew exactly what I wanted to do. Here is the Sketch I was given:</div>

Right away that orange just popped out at me. I knew I had to use orange, yellow, and black on my layout. Love!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, here is what I created:</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a picture of my beautiful boy. I love, love, love my son! This picture makes me so happy. I chose a black and what picture so it wouldn't compete with the colors I wanted to use on the page. The minute I saw the sketch I remembered these great Tuesday Morning chipboard stars that I've had in my stash for years. I'm so glad I held on to them. They are perfect!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The background paper is from Bella Blvd. I loved the bold pattern on the dark color. To add some detail to the page I used a Jim Holtz stencil and Quick Quotes Powder Puff Ink in Blue Jeans. I pushed the ink into the stencil around the page. I adore the effect it made. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love, love, love layers. I also love mixing patterned papers. So much fun! In this picture you can see all the wonderful layers of paper and ephemera. So much fun!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had these large white cardstock alphas in my stash for awhile too. I love how the white stands out against all the patterns and bright colors. The 'oh' is from a pack of glitter Thickers that I've had in my stash as well. I think I used a lot of supplies that have been begging to be used on this page. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguL97nPglM1ixcRFgsTHckJAPW-9Ce-j9Ydsif4Qe-lyXVJTGg01vsTolrMzeD3PL1SMmF2oV1YttxG6zl3NGFV_KwWaJfvLzYTDaSzWB7YiyEboIFchN4KKInD873iLWjB_azSGmDp9k/s1600/IMG_0363.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="309" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguL97nPglM1ixcRFgsTHckJAPW-9Ce-j9Ydsif4Qe-lyXVJTGg01vsTolrMzeD3PL1SMmF2oV1YttxG6zl3NGFV_KwWaJfvLzYTDaSzWB7YiyEboIFchN4KKInD873iLWjB_azSGmDp9k/s320/IMG_0363.PNG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a gold Uniball Signo pen to create the circles on the page. They add a bit of detail without adding dimension. The tickets in the corner were just the color I wanted, but I didn't like the words on them. So, I simply turned them over and outlined the edges. They became the perfect place to do my quick journaling and to add an embellishment cluster. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVQAP6IeGBIBLmkVVZX0h0z_XtYIubDdtjWp3Pc7gloPzvR6z4g4TVKHqrAtKulQVeDmt4oUb3JK9O4YWHh1DAOgIEVnMY2BpaxinwBqUN3cUsZwEa9FgXcuE2MkykRZBoaV7msF_ABXo/s1600/IMG_0362.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVQAP6IeGBIBLmkVVZX0h0z_XtYIubDdtjWp3Pc7gloPzvR6z4g4TVKHqrAtKulQVeDmt4oUb3JK9O4YWHh1DAOgIEVnMY2BpaxinwBqUN3cUsZwEa9FgXcuE2MkykRZBoaV7msF_ABXo/s320/IMG_0362.PNG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used pop-dots under the picture because it sat up on the star which had dimension. I also pop-dotted a couple accent stars for more dimension. Here you can also see that I outlined the large star with white faux stitching using a white Gelly Roll pen. I love doodling on my pages.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicutK5ToJ_QQz7LhePAyc7gHVqIW_ZwEyOBpgKB_nw8dyTOiptGxDBUgyfMCiqHHbdc9T9Fkyk0lpo6yYw7612qK1Yq_6KxS_hZrYyHCDh-TCx51qwLixTmCY24GuUJRgSN43Q1cw313g/s1600/IMG_0361.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicutK5ToJ_QQz7LhePAyc7gHVqIW_ZwEyOBpgKB_nw8dyTOiptGxDBUgyfMCiqHHbdc9T9Fkyk0lpo6yYw7612qK1Yq_6KxS_hZrYyHCDh-TCx51qwLixTmCY24GuUJRgSN43Q1cw313g/s320/IMG_0361.PNG" width="312" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And finally, the "star" of the page (pun intended). These stars were plain, white chipboard when I pulled them out of the package. To create the wonderful colors, depth and shine and painted them with Twinkling H20s in Ginger Peach, Indian Copper, and Yellow Rose. I then used some Ultra Embossing Powder to create a nice, thick layer of shine on them. They turned out just the way I had hoped. Perfect!</div>

Most of the papers for this page came from the Echo Park Hugs &Kisses collection. I love the pinks and reds! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a sketch from <a href="http://sketchnscrap.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Sketch~N~Scrap</a> for this layout. I changed it up a bit and added an extra picture.</div>

I love using flair on my on my pages. This piece of flair has been in my stash for awhile. I'm glad I was able to use it. I also used gold rub-ons from Jubilee all over the page. Lots of fun to work with!</div>

I thought about adding mist, or doodles to this white space, but in the end I decided to leave the white to give the eyes a break; a resting place. I used gold ink to edge all my papers, and I also used it to stamp the date in the page.</div>

It's been a long time since I created a double-page layout. I always take so many pictures at the pumpkin patch that it's much easier to fit them in double-page layouts.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I used two types of alphas for the title. I especially love the gold letters. I typed my journaling on my computer and cut it into strips. I really like adding my journaling to pages this way.</div>

I used my Cricut to cut out these leaves. I used a gold Signo Ball pen to draw the veins in them. Adding enamel dots made the leaves stand out even more.</div>

Today I'm showcasing a layout of myself. It doesn't happen often, but sometimes it's nice to include myself in our family albums.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQfrOyr0SwwN1P_QZ5dv656FtwZUeZ4fzpQ90UqSmygJdCl5b7qITuTtlrHhbY4AS6htAWkUuv2HopNxyc_t5-5J9Io2DY1ZaXYjnP_gVh3SE6_-h6wW2at7f115Qy7F2ipAIH0ySaTZw/s1600/FB_IMG_1455603075850.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="318" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQfrOyr0SwwN1P_QZ5dv656FtwZUeZ4fzpQ90UqSmygJdCl5b7qITuTtlrHhbY4AS6htAWkUuv2HopNxyc_t5-5J9Io2DY1ZaXYjnP_gVh3SE6_-h6wW2at7f115Qy7F2ipAIH0ySaTZw/s320/FB_IMG_1455603075850.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a sketch from <a href="http://shopscrapmuch.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2016-02-15T04:00:00-05:00&max-results=5" target="_blank">ScrapMuch?</a> for this layout. Another wonderful Laura Whitaker sketch. My favorite! I also used this page for a challenge from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10206003991883793&set=o.1697200763892241&type=3&theater" target="_blank">SG Scrap Squad</a>. The Challenge was to create a layout using at least three gold items. I used a gold word sticker, gold sequins, and gold metallic thread. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm in love with the colors in this layout. Everything just came together quickly, and I love how it turned out. I used chipboard hearts, enamel dots, and this cute button tied with gold thread for the embellishment cluster at the corner of my picture.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmdeJLaXFIGP8A4MvtFRws9nZQQl00GrSPaFRDT1-bGy9913cdjQNNGq1uf1KItPby1K9sTIs22Od42mmUMhxsspGjSjDQMCqVhNzwosO5hVN47xxuNomO754NODtCzk1CXH3M7jV7Mdo/s1600/IMG_0486.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmdeJLaXFIGP8A4MvtFRws9nZQQl00GrSPaFRDT1-bGy9913cdjQNNGq1uf1KItPby1K9sTIs22Od42mmUMhxsspGjSjDQMCqVhNzwosO5hVN47xxuNomO754NODtCzk1CXH3M7jV7Mdo/s320/IMG_0486.PNG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I based the color scheme off of the camera paper that I cut into strips. Everything worked so well together. The little brown bag behind the picture has been in my stash for a very long time. I love that I finally found the place to use it.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a Tim Holtz stencil and some coral Quick Quotes ink to add the dots on the page. I liked how it added so much detail with something so simple. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I used a sketch from <a href="http://stucksketches.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Stuck?! Sketches</a>. Laura Whitaker sketches make me happy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also used this layout for a challenge from the FB challenge group <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10206004352652812&set=o.1697200763892241&type=3&theater" target="_blank">SG Scrap Squad</a>. The challenge was "Build Your Own Super Bowl Sub Layout". I used patterned paper and cardstock for the "bun", a punch and stencil for the "meat", enamel dots, twine, wood veneer, buttons, and letter stickers for the "extras", and ink and a pen for the "dipping sauce". Lots of fun!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And last, I used this layout <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1499810043590964/" target="_blank">Paper Issues</a> February Take Five Challenge. To fulfill this challenge I used the color red, the color pink, a heart, patterned paper, a tag, cardstock, ink, and something wood grain. I had a great time fitting it all in!</div>

I used lots of layers in this layout. I used different color pens to doodle on all the pieces of paper I used to create the layers. I used these adorable crochet hearts around the layout. Love!</div>

I don't often get to take a good picture of my wonderful husband, Troy, so when I do, I make sure to scrap it. </div>

I used a sketch from <a href="http://stickitdown.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Stick It Down</a>. I loved the simplicity of it, and the straight lines. I really like straight lines! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

And last, I used this page for a challenge from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1697200763892241/photos/" target="_blank">SG Scrap Squad</a>. It was called the "All I Want to Do is Scrapbook" challenge; use any theme, size, colors. Easy!</div>

I used red glitter Thickers for the title of this layout. I love the deep red color! I framed the picture of my husband with white cardstock, and inked the edges with red Quick Quotes chalk ink. I used the same ink to edge most of the papers on the page.</div>

I used papers and embellishments from my past Noel Mignon kits. I adore her kits! To create this page I used a sketch from <a href="http://shopscrapmuch.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2016-01-22T04:00:00-05:00&max-results=5" target="_blank">ScrapMuch?</a> to create this page. It's another adorable Laura Whitaker sketch. My favorite! Due to my busy life, I didn't get this page submitted to ScrapMuch? in time for the challenge deadline, but that's okay, I adore this page!</div>

This paper was perfect for this layout. I love the little blocks of happy thoughts. I used a pink ZigWriter pen to write some quick journaling, and to doodle on the page. This little wood veneer '&' has been in my stash for awhile. I'm so happy I was finally able to use it!</div>

Aren't those girls adorable? I used pink, glitter Thickers for the title. I had these crochet hearts in my stash and had to use them on this page. They are perfect!</div>

I used various papers and embellishments from past Noel Mignon kits for this page. I created the page for a sketch challenge on the Facebook Group page <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/sgscrapsquad/" target="_blank">SG Scrap Squad</a>. I had tons of fun creating it!</div>

Okay...I see the mistake in the title now. How did I not see the double "want" when I made the page? Who knows?!? The white alphas that spell Want have now been removed. I didn't feel like taking the photos again, to be honest, so just image it's gone. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a set of phrase Thickers for the title, along with three different types of alphas. I love mixing alphas on layouts!</div>

I added gold accents to the page to break up the blues and teals. I adore this acetate strip of gold arrows that I stitched down with my sewing machine. I pop-dotted the gold hearts on the page to give them dimension.</div>

I love these colors! Blues, teals and whites are my colors. Beautiful! The doodling just kind of happened as I went. The page called for lots of straight lines, so I went with it. I also used Dyllusions White Spray Mist to add accents to the page.</div>

It's rare that my best friend, Michelle, and I get pictures taken together. As soon as I saw these, I knew I'd be scrapping them. It still took me a couple years to get them on a page though. Go figure!</div>

I used various papers and embellishments from past Noel Mignon kits, and from my stash. I had fun playing with this page. I had a sketch originally, but I didn't follow it much, so it's kind of my own creation. I did complete this page for a challenge for the Facebook Group <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/sgscrapsquad/" target="_blank">SG Scrap Squad</a>. I had a great time creating it.</div>

This heart clip was the perfect accent. The little blue scallop ribbon was some of my favorite ribbon ever. It was self-adhesive, and I had just a tiny bit left. I was able to put some above and some below the pictures, but it looks like a full strip of ribbon. I love saving on my supplies! I layers lots of patterned papers because it's one of my favorite things to do, and as usual, I doodled on nearly ever scrap on the page.</div>

The die cut was created by Stacia Brandt from Dancing Daisy Designs. She is extremely talented, and a wonderful friend. As soon as I told her what I wanted, she made it, sent it to me via e-mail for approval, and shipped it. So wonderful! She can be reached through Facebook if you are interested in seeing more of her work.</div>

Our selfie came out goofy, and not flattering at all, but you can tell that we are happy and having fun. I wouldn't change it for anything! </div>

I used bits and pieces from past Noel Mignon kits for this layout. I picked the papers and colors to match Meila's outfit in the picture. Pink and Black together are so much fun! I created this page for a challenge on a FB group <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/sgscrapsquad/" target="_blank">SG Scrap Squad</a>. The challenge was to scraplift a beautiful layout by another talented scrapbooker. I loved her layout and this is what I made from her inspiration.</div>

I could not resist pairing silver with all this pink and black. This bow has been calling to me for a long time, and it was finally time to use it! I paired it with other silver accents throughout the page, including this adorable little heart stickers.</div>

I also used silver Thickers for the title. Silver is my favorite metallic color, so I was happy to get to play with it. I love using mist on my pages. I've just started being brave enough to put large drops on my page. I like how the white Dyllusions Color Mist contrasted with the black cardstock. In this picture you can see some of the luscious layers of patterned paper that I used. It was so much fun to put them all together. I try to doodle on my pages, and on this page I used black, white, and pink pens.</div>

I found this little silver heart clip in my stash and just threw it on the corner of the picture. Such a good detail to add! I also used a piece of flair that I found in my ever growing flair collection.</div>

I used my Noel Mignon kits for this page. Her kits are always so wonderful to work with. To create the layout I used a sketch #465 from <a href="http://scrapbookchallenges.com/sketch-465/" target="_blank">Scrapbook Challenges</a>. I loved the look of the sketch right away!</div>

I love using wood veneer pieces on my pages when I can. For this page, I didn't want the natural wood look. So, I sprayed my pieces with Heidi Swapp Color Shine in Mustard and Gold. The effect is shimmery without being overwhelming. I also paired the title with some glitter Thickers. So much fun! This yellow polka dot ribbon was also perfect for the page. It's been in my stash for awhile just waiting for the perfect page. </div>

I chose to mount the pictures of my son on yellow cardstock to keep the sunny theme going. I love all the bright colors that were brought in to complement the yellow in the accent papers. I used one natural wood veneer piece in the tag on the side of the photo.</div>

I used a sketch from <a href="http://letsgetsketchy.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Let's Get Sketchy</a> for this page. I used various items from my stash, and just kind of put it together as I went. I did discover that I don't have a lot of purple in my stash. I think I need to fix that!</div>

I wanted to play off of the purple rose in her dad's pocket. This picture was from his wedding, so I know it will be special to her. I found this vintage wood rose. It's perfect! I used gold throughout the page after finding this rose. I also found some resin roses in my stash. Perfect!</div>

This title is a rub-on. I love it! I used several rub-ons for this page. Some were gold, and some were dark brown. Perfect for the look I wanted. I used a gold Uniball pen to outline all the papers, and gold ink for ink the edges. I also used Mr. Huey's Metallic Gold ink for the splats. Once I dropped the ink on the page I let it dry for a few minutes, then I tapped the edges of the paper on my desk to get the ink to run in various ways.</div>

It's rare that I get to scrap pictures of my husband and myself. We took a trip back in February, and I finally got around to scrapping a few of the photos. I love that we take selfies together, which my daughter tells me is "usies" since there are two of us in the picture. </div>

I love, love, love the milk bottle paper. I took my colors from that paper for the rest of the page. The stitching is actually rub-ons, and not real stitching. So much easier than dragging out my machine! I created a little embellishment cluster based around this 'Heavy Cream' wooden nickel. So cute!</div>

I used a set of Thickers for the title. The little word card is from Heidi Swapp. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used lots of layers of patterned papers for this page. I inked all the edges with gold ink, and doodled around each edge with a gold Uniball pen.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love all these layers! I added some circles (or half-circles) with a black Zig Writer. I also did my journaling with the same pen. </div>

I love these gold Thickers! I wish I had bought a few packets when I found them, but unfortunately, I didn't. I was so happy I had enough to make this title. I used my handwriting on this page because I know that one day my kids and grandkids will want to see it. I try to use it once in awhile instead of typing my journaling.</div>

I love the colors on this page! I've been wanting to use these papers, and they were perfect for this picture. I used Heidi Swapp Color mist for the splatter and the rings on this page. For the teal splatter I tapped the stem of the spray applicator to disperse the spray. For the rings I put some primrose spray on a plate and put the end of a cup into it. I placed it on several areas of the page. </div>

I'm finally getting around to scrapping some old Christmas pictures. Maybe next year I'll get this year done. Maybe. I love scrapbooking Christmas, but I take so many pictures that sometimes it's difficult to just scrap a few. I usually scrap the best shots, and then use pocket pages for the rest. I love these two pictures!</div>

I used a sketch from <a href="http://stucksketches.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Stuck?! Sketches</a> for this layout. I love Laura Whitaker's sketches. I turned the sketch on it's side and played around with the layout just a bit. I also used this layout for a challenge from a Facebook page called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/369944409861404/" target="_blank">My Scraps & More Challenges and Contests</a>. The challenge was to use something shiny. The red stars on the star paper shine.</div>

I used layers of patterned papers for this page. I like to be able to use different patterns when I can. They add interest in an otherwise simple layout. I used blue glitter Thickers for the title.

Oh man, I love this little face! This is my adorable son, William. How cute is he? He's ten-years-old, but he still loves to spend time with me cuddling and talking. I adore him so much! I took this picture of him a few months ago. I love the little freckles that you can see across the bridge of his nose. Too cute!</div>

I used Echo Parks Jack and Jill Boy collection for this layout. I love the oranges and blues together. I used what looks like several layers of paper, but really only used two full layers, and then used little pieces of paper around the edges. I inked all the edges with Quick Quotes chalk ink in Orange Slice. I used a white Uniball pen to outline some of the layers, and a Zig Writer in navy for some others. Lots of little details in this simple layout. I used a set of Thickers with blue glitter. Fun!</div>

I used Heidi Swapp Color Shine in both navy and peach for this page. I took the cap off and just tapped it to disperse the ink o the page. I used different circle embellishments from the Jack and Jill line to add fun elements to the page. I love how simple this page is. It allows my son's adorable face to be the star of the page. Perfect!</div>

I used my sewing machine to add stitching to a few places on the page. After that, I attached this adorable snowflake clip to the page by hand sewing it on. I added the title over the top of the stitching. If you look closely you can see some teal washi tape under the word 'Christmas'. I love all these layers!</div>

These are pictures of my beautiful daughter several years ago when we had a "blizzard" at our house. The snow was blowing like crazy, and we ended up with several inches by the time it was done. I was able to snap these pictures of my daughter and I love them!</div>

I created this page for a challenge from a Facebook group called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/369944409861404/" target="_blank">My Scraps & More Challenges and Contests</a>. The challenge was to use outdoor pictures. I used my Noel Mignon kit for this page. I loved that the teal papers and embellishments went so well with my daughter's coat. I used red as an accent to compliment of her lovely hat and scarf.</div>

I used two different kinds of alphas for the title. Both are Thickers, but one is puffy and one is glittery. Love! I love them both! I used this adorable red striped paper behind the pictures. Too cute!</div>

The red striped papers had this adorable little blue bird in the corner. There was a branch on the paper, but I used a piece of this Tim Holtz holly branch trim that I had in my Noel Mignon kit. I adore how it turned out! Here you can see the date of the pictures; 2008. My daughter would have been 14 at the time. So long ago!</div>

These rosettes are the star of the embellishments. So much cute! I added the wood veneer snowflakes for extra detail. To make them shine I used some ultra-thick embossing powder. I kept them natural so they wouldn't detract from the rest of the layout.</div>

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. We had a great time here at our house. I was able to spend many days scrapbooking, which has made me very happy and relaxed. This is just one of many layouts I completed over the last week or so. So much fun!!</div>

I used pieces from my Noel Mignon kit, along with a few other things around my stash.</div>

I love using multiple alphas on my layouts. For this one I used three different types. The cursive letters are Thickers with various words in the set. The word Stockings was made from a beautiful thick, shiny, gold Thicker set. I also used little block letters for the rest of the title. I love it!</div>

To create the background I used a makeup sponge to spread some gold Mr. Huey's Gold spray. I then used a red Fabre Castille Gelato to add bits of red to it. Last, I stamped some gold snowflakes in various places. It turned out perfect!</div>
