This is great! I can't imagine how much work you must have put into it, but it was worth it! Excellent job!

Trick-or-Treat (Revised)

This all started out because I only had one piece of patterned paper, and I had 3 pages of layouts to do. I decided to use what I had and do a mosaic page. If I knew how long this actually took, I would have jumped in my car and bought more paper that night!

I do love the look, though. This one is Micah's. Noah's will be the same, but his patterned paper is candy corn. (As soon as I finish his, I will post one.) I am doing 3 of these pages for each of my sons, 6 total. Whew! Hopefully I will finish before next Halloween!!

I dusted off my cross stitch floss and did the blanket stitch around the pictures and title. I bought the orange vellum in a pack of primary colors a long time ago. I never used it because it was darker and heavier than I thought it would be. I am so glad I was able to use it!

I re-did part of the stitching on the title. It was too orange on the one side, therefore looked unbalanced. I am much happier with this one.

Thanks for looking!
