December Scrap Our Stash Blend a Sketch challenge.

I truly did a stash busting layout here. I have only three papers from this collection, but they're beautiful and I've been hoarding them.  I also pulled random stickers of all sorts from my stash and stuck them on this page.

I combined the two sketches by using the bigger photos and layers from the left sketch + the lower photo cluster from the right sketch. I kept my title placement and journaling similar to the left sketch. I noticed the sketch on the left has a tag so I used tags as one of my three elements. I found THIS free cut file at Paper Issues to make my tags. I also used three black heart stickers and three butterflies on pop dots.

At our wedding we did the anniversary dance; it's one of my favorite parts of any wedding I've ever attending. It goes something like this: The DJ calls all the married couples onto the dance floor and after a few minutes, the DJ has anyone married less than 5 hours sit down (that's us!). Then after a few more minutes he says anyone married less than one year, sit down. Then after a few more minutes he says anyone married less than five years, sit down. So he goes every few minutes having couples married less than X years sit down. At the end you're left with a couple who have been married 62 years (my husband's paternal grandparents). It's SO cool and I'm so glad we got to honor ALL of the married couples at our wedding.
 Thanks so much for looking!
