Inspiration: October 2021 Page Maps Sketch
I was looking forward to scrapbooking this picture of my brother-in-law wearing his ugly Christmas vest, but I kept the picture aside after seeing a preview of the upcoming Ugly Christmas Sweater collection from Simple Stories, which was totally perfect for this picture. I made sure to purchase the Page Pieces as well, which made putting this page together really easy. I used one of the cut-aparts to add my handwritten journaling, and I fussy cut another image from a cut-apart, the "ugliest sweater ever" ribbon. The three sweaters, the title, the aqua tag, the knitted hearts and the "so ugly it's cute!" tag all come from the Page Pieces kit (and I've got a few leftovers for future projects). I borrowed a couple of brads and chipboard sticker from the Make It Merry decorative brads pack and I used a few stickers from the collection sticker sheet. This was a pretty fast and easy page for a fun Holidays memory.
