Friday Core'dinations Winter

Happy Friday!

Love that it is the weekend!  Do you have any fun plans.  I have a ton of tennis and that is about it.  Jack is always busy and on the go so that is a constant!  I just love being home with my guys!!

Last year we did not get a lot of snow.  I think it snowed only 3-4 times but each time the boys would get so excited.  Jack wanted to make snow angels and I happened to catch him.  He is my little sow angel. 
For my layout I started with a navy Core background and scored and sanded it.  I then took a Core Whitewash Barn Siding piece and embossed it with my Couture embossing snowflake folder.  I then lightly sanded it to bring out the red.  I then made a Core tag using coordinating Core essentials cardstock.  Finally I punched out my snowflakes using a Marvy punch.  I used the Glitter Silk paper for my snowflakes.  Lastly I then built my layout layering the cardstock elements and some left over pattern paper from Echo Park.  I added some fun stickers as embellishments and wrote my journaling with a white gel pen.

Thanks so much for joining me today.  I will be back tomorrow with a rare Saturday post because it is the 1st of the month and we have a really fun challenge for you over at Some Odd Girl!  See you tomorrow.  Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Beautiful layout.
I love the dark navy blue paper you used, all the other elements just pop off the page.
