A Little Something Awesome Layout

We spent Christmas 2018 with my brother and family in Las Vegas, and although I wrote in my journaling that camels and snow in LV were unusual, who am I kidding? I'm pretty sure that is tame compared to  the usual spectacles this crazy town has to offer - LOL! I don't use gold paper very often in my scrapbooking, but the Modern Christmas papers from SU made it too easy, so I put the starry night ones at the top and bottom of the layout with my photos and embellishments sandwiched in between. The sequins are actually green, but I noticed the photo makes some of them look gold. I could have color corrected but I was feeling lazy, so I left them as is. 

Recipe:
Modern Christmas paper (SU)
Kraft, Mocha & White Daisy cardstock
Mocha ink
Sienna fineliner pen (iBayam)
Heartfelt Wonder felt die cuts
Ruby Mini-Medley accents - clothes pins & poinsettias
Doily and green sequins (from my stash, source unknown)
Simple Vintage Essentials foam title stickers (Simple Stories)
Pattern: EMS Sketch Challenge #110

Challenges: Let's Craft and Create #225 Anything Goes with optional twist of twine (not sure if the fiber I used qualifies as twine because it's pretty thick);  Crafter's Cafe #325 Anything Goes with optional twist of yellow or gold; Time Out Challenges #301 Favorite holiday to celebrate - mine is Christmas; Unicorn Challenges #115 Christmas or winter; Color My Heart Color Dare #678 - used three shades of brown plus black, white, and metallics, and my 2 additional colors are red and green.
