Challenge YOUrself.

 My 3rd layout this morning is one for Challenge YOUrself

The theme is Home for the Holidays.

When Warren and I were first married we drove for 2 hours to visit both sets of parents on Christmas Day.In this photo we are with his mother and aunt. It was the first year we were married so very keen to "do the right thing".

I painted the edges of the paper to look like snow.I also used old music paper as Warren is quite musical and it was a tradition there to sing carols. The ribbon roses came pre-made and the chipboard scraoll was inked in gold. The 2 reindeers were painted red. I added sequins as well.

Julene, your layout is absolutely beautiful! I love how you painted the edges of your paper, your entire design is awesome, and your photo is wonderful. (I remember those days when we were first married, too, and would go to both families homes on holidays!!!) Thank you so much for joining us at Challenge YOUrself this month. We are all very happy that you did!
