Home



The layout I am sharing today is Once Upon a Sketch. The journaling criteria is home. 


I was really excited by this theme. The photo I used is the last photo with my siblings when we were all together. I love this photo. Being the eldest in my family I feel quite protective of my brothers and sisters. I love them dearly and they truly are my home.


Here is a close up of my journaling. It came from a paper collection. I did have a quote picked out, but after looking through my stash, I chose this instead.


A paper rose created using Spellbinders Rose creations.


Another reference to home. I had this cardstock in my stash as well.


I used a variety of paper punches to create my border. 


I used an embellishment from Garden Gala to add my title.


Welcome to my home....my family!

Supplies

Paper: Webster's Pages Garden Gala, Glitz Design Beautiful Dreamer, Pink Paislee Botanical Garden, Home on the Range, Prima Pixie Glen
