A Kozak Christmas

This will be my last post from the Let's Get Sketchy blog hop as the deadline is looming. This time I've chosen Melinda's challenge which was a sketch and the requirement to stitch on the page.

Once again I'm combining this with a challenge from Scrap Our Stash. Their Stash-A-Thon Challenge #3 is inspired by the candles on a birthday cake, and we were asked to use any sort of bling on the page.

The small photos in the sketch made me look at the photos that my cousin sends me most years, which seemed to be a good size. The ones I picked are from a Christmas photoshoot so I pulled out my Christmas papers and used traditional red and green. I machine stitched all my papers to the page, added gems to my tiny Christmas tree and used a glittery banner under the photos. (If you are wondering about that title, Kozak is my cousin's married surname.)
