hearts filled with sunshine... 36

Hi there! I hope you are having a great weekend! Today I have a layout to share featuring a photo of Connor and Meredith that was taken approximately 10 years ago while on a trip to Santa Monica, California:

I trimmed around the edges of a pretty preprinted tag, distressed the edges then stitched into place. I topped it off with a die cut heart and fabric blossom:

For the title, I trimmed, distressed and outlined a preprinted sentiment.

For sketch inspiration, I joined along with the Let's Get Sketchy sketch challenge:

Thanks so much for stopping by ~ I hope you enjoyed my layout!
Be Sweet :)
