Sometimes it hits me........

Especially when I look through pictures and find one that means a lot to me, or at least,the people on the picture do. Like this one..... my brother, with his kids and girlfriend. The picture is about a half year old, so all the kids are grown, but man, those 5 people...... they are so special, so I decided to do something special with it. Took me some time, but I'm completely satisfied with the result.

I sandpapered the letters and painted them.

Cut little pieces of paper and formed them into a heart shape, used flowers to decorate.

Also I found wire I didn't think I had, wrapped it around the brads, and that made it look good!

And this is another winter LO, boy, do I have lots of snow and ice pictures!

Again I sandpapered the letters and painted them, nice work, starting to like it!

Detail of the circles and the journaling.

I used a little chipboard (BG) photocorner, painted it red and used paint on the edges of the LO for the first time!

And yes, if you'e wondering, I DO LIKE BASIC GREY PAPERS!!!! So much that it's used on almost every LO I make!
