a very merry layout

hey there!

today i'm on the newton's nook blog showcasing a few of the new holiday release stamps one more time! :)

this time, i created a layout! 
at christmas last year i took some pictures of my little menn at the fireplace looking up for santa with some cookies on a plate! i love the pictures and the memories they invoke! and when i saw this image from on 'newton's holiday mischief' stmap set i KNEW it was finally time to scrap the pictures! 

(i paper pieced and popped up newtion and those cookies and i think it's so cute!!)

so here's my layout:

i kept it simple and just added some pops of color. i colored the stockings, cut them out and popped them up in the corner. then added a few clothes pins to the whisps of line. both the stockings and the stamped title are from newton's holiday wishes stamp set! such a fun set with mixed fonts to create your own custom sentiments! :)

then i added a soom wood veneer stars to add to the 'magic' of the scene in the pictures. you can't tell - but i added a wink of stella glitter to all of the stars. in real life it adds such a subtle effect and again, ups the 'magic' of the season feel! :)

the main title was created with thickers and some alpha stickers and i love it! i'm so glad to have this memory officially documented! :)
