Let it Snow... 35

Mona Pendleton | Wednesday, November 12, 2014 @ 5:17 PM | , , , , , ,

Hi there! I hope you are having a great week. Today I have a layout to share featuring pretty patterned papers from the versatile Pion Design My Beloved Son collection. 

I scrapped a photo of Connor and Meredith that was taken several years ago while we were vacationing on a ski trip somewhere in the US :) 
For the background I chose to use a more solid sheet of paper named "Images ~ back" because this left an open blank canvas allowing me to randomly stamp and emboss snowflakes as well as adding texture using a stencil. 
I embellished with a couple of die cut snowflakes and flowers from my stash:
For sketch inspiration, I joined along with the current Let's Get Sketchy sketch challenge:
Thanks so much for stopping by ~ I hope you have a great day / evening.
Be Sweet ;)
