Home, Sweet Home with Allie

Hello there! It's Allie here today sharing a layout using the Everyday Wishes collection. Today's page focuses on hand-stitching!

There were so many items in the kit that would look so cute with accent stitching, but I settled on this fun castle from the planner kit! I love the castles Andrea often includes in each kit, because they are so perfect for all my Disney photos!

I stitched around the castle design, and then cut it out to create a beautiful focal point for my page. I used the gorgeous "Dreams Do Come True" paper as my background. I added tissue paper on top of it to help tone down the design and have the photo stand out.

I used a picture from our recent trip to Disneyland, but converted it to black and white so the Christmas colors in the photo wouldn't compete with the colors of the page.

Finally, I finished off with embellishments. There are so many die cuts and stickers that it was hard to choose! I love the way it turned out. I had so much fun using all the beautiful patterns and colors. Thanks for joining me today!
