Give a Cheer
Behold, the second-fastest page I've ever done! LOL I had about an hour left of my crop last night and, instead of breaking and going to pump like I *should* have, I finished my 5 Ingredients page! LOL! This photo is over 3 years old now! OH MY how time does fly! This was our DS first Christmas, which we of course spent in Seattle with my family. We coordinated clothing for a family photo on Christmas day with my parents, sister, brother-in-law, DH, me and our baby boy. Gosh he was such a little pumpkin head then!!
I sat down with my 5 ingredients: 1 photo, stencil, snowflake, journaling tag and 2-word title and had to look through all my photos for something that would work with a snowflake! I live in So Cal so snowflakes are, well… rare! LOL! I could do an old photo of DH and I skiing, but I didn't have one there with me (gasp!), I had some Christmas pix in Disneyland, but didn't have my Disney papers (double-gasp!). I did have some family Christmas photos and when I browsed my papers I found these Christmas Basecoat papers by Kaisercraft. They looked so perfect with the red family photo that I went with it. Found that MME Notable Collection ppr and used the whole piece! Now to embellish… The page needed a bow and I originally thought red, but when I went to peruse the red ribbons at the crop store, none matched. I turned to my table-mates (new friends!) for advice and we collectively decided on the dark brown ribbon and I added the gauzy one behind. Then I remembered my Timmy foliage dies and that cute new Petaloo stick that I'd gotten at the last crop (with the Kaisercraft papers I think actually…). Added the snowflake from an OLD Maya Road ephemera pack, gold Stickles, tag and voila! PAGE DONE! Then I remembered the stencil ingredient! ::facepalm:: I was able to add the North Star stencil with the gold foil spray, but it doesn't show up very well in the photo, hence the closeup. Looks better IRL. Anyway, I finished the page in under an hour and a half – which is something of a record for me!
Also for my Hoarders challenge. That MME ppr, wood tag and omg that snowflake are oooold!
TFL!
Thanks for spreading positivity!
