Hang Your Stocking Christmas card 7-28-19

Forever Love layout share

Hello and welcome to the post for today. I'm not sure I actually created a layout I wanted for this photo since it is so precious to me, but I think it came out pretty good. The background layer is Crate Paper Hello Love. The photo was matted on the Basic Grey B side woodgrain paper, then the left side of the photo was matted the Basic Grey Maybe paper.

I stamped Hello Baby (SU) using Memento Tuxedo black ink and die cut a banner (SU) and adhered it to the tag. The year is from the Seasonal Snapshot 2015 Project Life accessory pack (SU). Take a look at the layout and let me know what you t...
