Dear Santa ~ 1984 --Sketches In Thyme Challenge

Hi everyone!! It's Thursday and that means it's time for another sketch challenge over at Sketches In Thyme!!!  This week we have a wonderful sketch from

Jana Eubank

Here are a few close-ups of my layout

Here is a close up of the Poinsettias, the Prima, and the frame, which  is actually recycled chipboard..  It  had quite a few skinny chipboard frames in it and this is the part you throw away, but I decided to ink this up and use it as a frame...  These are my cute little kids back in 1984...  I can't believe that Levi is now 31 and Amanda will soon will be 29... 

Here is a close up of 2 of those cute buttons from our sponsor this month Charlene's Button Box...   They are so cute and she has so many different designs..  Be sure and browse her etsy shop..  You can also see the little ornament stickers that I added..

 Here is a close-up of some of my distressing!!
