Today’s color combination in New England Ivy, Garden Green, Cranberry, and Crème Brulee features a layout that really hits home with that idea. This adorable little girl is Abbie, daughter to Stacy, our Marketing Manager. She’s an only child and apple of mom and dad’s eye! Stacy is such a sweet and caring mom, and Abbie is a favorite around the office, always sharing little notes and colorful drawings with the marketing team. I love this layout, which showcases a dozen of the things Stacy loves about her daughter—each one concealed inside a fun peek-a-boo window that Abbie will enjoy opening again and again. What a great gift!
And of course, because the season is in high gear, I couldn’t resist adding a few cards to the mix, too. Check out the wonderful Santa image on my 6”x6” square card. The details on his face, hair, and ivy boughs were created simply by using a blending pen and ink pads—it gives a slightly softer look than markers and gives you even more precision than a waterbrush. May the gifts of the season be yours!
Absolutely, beautiful, thank you so much for sharing Jeanette. I hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas filled with love, and happiness.
ReplyDeleteI just want you to know that even when I haven't had a chance to visit your blog for a few days, I don't miss a single post! I love the elements you use in yoru embellishments! I have learned so much from you. Today's post is no exception!
ReplyDeleteJeanette,
ReplyDeleteIt is now New Year's Day. I hope you and your family and your staff and their families had as happy and magical a Christmas Season as my family did. My older son is in Afghanistan, but he is still safe; my younger is a police officer. They both worked Christmas, with honor. They made it possible for me to attend the Convention in D.C., last July, as my Christmas gift. Thank you to you and to them! May
God Bless all who are away from home this Christmas. Peace.
