Every year, my sister, brother, and I take our children for a portrait for our mom. It's her one Christmas gift wish each year. She wants that photo of her grandkids!! We've been taking these portraits since 1999 or 2000. It's amazing to see how these cousins have grown up! (My two girls are in the center and on the right. Aren't they gorgeous?)
I love the sketch, and it worked well for this 8x10 that I wanted to scrap. I love the black and white photo. It's on Dasher paper by Basic Grey. The title that goes up the side is Basic Grey self-adhesive letters that came with the Dasher pack. The "COUSINS" chipboard pieces are from QVC, and I believe they are ScrapWorks. They have a little sparkle to them. The felt piece at the top is Rhonna by Autumn Leaves. I added some rhinestones. I wanted to keep this layout simple, because the photo speaks for itself. This sketch was perfect!
Thanks for stopping by!
