Hello dear friends!!! I just love the Holidays, don't you!!! I love everything about it, even all the stress!!! I have a Christmas layout to share today featuring my two grandsons visiting Santa last year. It may be the last time, they are 8 and almost 10 this year, so I'm not sure how much they believe, sigh. I will miss the magic and innocence on their little faces.
I love using plaids for little guys at Christmas, oh well, at any time really!!! I got this really good paper from Anna that is all sparkly and foiled that I couldn't resist using for this layout and is the foundation for the layout. I chose to use the little Santa's Helpers elves to surround the photo of Santa. First I painted them with a Christmas green acrylic paint and then rubbed a bright metallic gold paint on, and last sprinkled some gold glitter on. Love the effect!!!
I wanted to some fun dangles hanging from the pointsettia flower clusters so I cut apart the Falling Stars Border. I painted both pieces in a luscious bright metallic gold to make them pop.
And last I added the sentiment "Merry Christmas" done in an old world script, which I love that I painted in black.
I sure hope you enjoyed your visit today. Tis the season, and a very Merry Christmas to all of you!!!
