From Santa - Paper Issues

 I did another Facebook LIVE on the Paper Issues Friends and Fans page.  

This time, I used Pretty Little Studio Christmas Cheer and a Sketch from the Advent of Sketches Album. Which is Paper Issues version of an advent calendar.  Instead of getting a gift or chocolate, you get a new sketch everyday.  I love a good sketch.  I used the sketch from Day 6.  I'll add it below.   Shop Paper Issue for 20% off with code: Mary-Ann

This photo is from the day after Christmas 2014.  He really really loved Baseball hats, Call of Duty and Transformers.  All represented in this photo!

Join me on the Fancy Pants blog to see the entire layout and read the story of my grandfather gifting his father's mason ring to my husband.  It truly is a sentimental moment and I am happy to share it on the Fancy Pants blog today.
