I don't scrapbook too many photos from my childhood, but this pic is extra special to me and brings up so many sweet memories from seasons past. It's my brother and I on Santa's knee, probably at a shopping mall or store. I remember that blue winter jacket and white galoshes so clearly. Ahhh...the good 'ole days :) Gosh, I guess the date would be about 1970....definitely not a vintage or heritage layout ha ha ha!
All papers are Graphic 45 Christmas Emporium...in LOVE with this collection. The chipboard ornate corners and tree are Dusty Attic painted gold and backed onto black Bazzill.
The wreath is made with the Tim Holtz rosette die, with fussy cut leaves from the G45 pp, covered in Rock Candy Distress Stickles and Red Stickles on the holly berries.
You can pop over to my blog for more details and close-ups www.kellycreates.blogspot.com.
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and joyful holiday season :)
