Sketch N Scrap Challenge #18

How can it be October already? I mean seriously, are the days flying by for you too? 
Are you all ready for another Sketch N Scrap challenge?
For this layout I looked through the photos of the kids from last years snow. I settled on these four pictures of Brett. Once I pulled the papers I decided to print the photos with a sepia tone to them. The main paper, Parson Brown has an aged look to it and color photos would have taken away from that.
There was a little brad play going on in the layout as well. I used 5 brads total for a nice elemental touch.
The title is cut out with my cricut then embellished with Candy Cane stickles.
I dug in my stash and found some Fancy Pants tags that went well with the Cosmo Cricket & Basic Grey papers I was using. I think it is a lot of fun to take papers from different lines and mix them. It's amazing how well they can work together!
Items I used in this layout:
Basic Grey • Eskimo Kisses • Evergreen
Cosmo Cricket • Dear Mr. Claus • Gift Tags
Cosmo Cricket • Dear Mr Claus • Parson Brown
Fancy Pants • Traditions • Tags & Titles

I really liked your interpretation of the sketch, and used it as part of my inspiration when I did my own layout using the sketch!
