Not everything in December can be about Christmas. And over the weekend I really needed a break from the holiday rush. So I decided to do a layout that is not about Christmas.
When I'm working with my Studio Calico kits for the current month, I save every scrap - no matter how small. So as the month ends, I tend to have lots of bits of patterned paper. And I know I will throw some of them away when I mix the kit in with my stash, so I feel pressured to use them.
So this month I decided to mix lots of scraps to create banners to set off a photo block.
The mix of colors and patterns created a fun, bright layout that was perfect for these pictures celebrating the one year anniversary of "gotcha day" with our sweet Jerry. We adopted him from our local animal shelter, and he has brought us so much joy.
But I was a bit stuck with title placement. I finally decided to use the large wood veneer number like another banner and really love the way it works with the rest of the design.
