These are pics taken with a point and shoot film camera, so the quality isn't very good, especially with the poor lighting in our basement at the time. LOL They are, however, the pics from our Christmas and needed a lo to showcase them!
This lo is almost entirely from really old elements in my stash. I used an old piece of pp that already had an embossed 9 square grid. I dug through my scraps and found a variety of Christmas pp's and used them to fill the squares where I didn't have pics. The small squares were cut from a piece of pp. I stitched the small squares to the lo to give a little more texture and interest to such an "old fashioned" lo. I added metal star brads to the little trees on the center block and added the date with stickers alphas and numbers and outlined them with the white pen. I stitched around the edges of the center square. I added the word stickers to the small squares and glimmer misted and layered some flowers to add to the title square. I used a glittered mini brad to attach the flower.
I matted the pics, used the white pen to add the dotted frame, added the tabs to identify the kids, and used the MS punch to create the photo corners from scraps of pp.
Thanks for spreading positivity!
