Mojo Monday Design Team Reveal: #LMC220 Snowflakes Galore

Welcome to Mojo Monday and our fabulous design team reveal. This week's challenge, #LMC220 is all about Snowflakes. Show us those Snowflakes in your layouts, it could be die cuts, background paper, in the photos themselves... The possibilities are endless!


We don't have snow at Christmas as it is summer in the southern hemisphere so rather than get caught up in the whole snowflake thing I just used patterned paper and embellishments to create my Christmas page.


I've chosen some large, spotty paper in wintery colours, which (if you squint) kind of evokes a snowy feel, maybe?
 
Stay tuned for more Snowflake layouts all week and month. We are looking forward to seeing your layouts. 
Thanks so much for stopping by and hope you find time to create with us this week!

My family's tradition has always been that stocking contents are wrapped, and get opened first - kids don't even have to wait for parents.  Journalling further is on the pull-out tag.
