A visit to SANTA

Sketch #8 over at ScrapFriends

 {A visit to SANTA}

 I have used some old Basic Grey paper from my stash  and played along with this fabulous sketch. 

Being December I decided to scrap a Christmas Photo... photo taken in 1995.

Not the best photo, but its the memory...Matthews first Christmas.

What gorgeous kids!! Neither were ever scared of the big man in the red suit.

I have used a CW template and Glimmermist to alter the background.

I am loving banners at the moment...the inspiration for this one came from 

the very  talented and creative  Heather Jacobs..

Have a great week.
