I usually avoid papers that feature a large pattern because I have no idea what to do with them, but I couldn't resist this cool paper with a scene of a snowy slope, perfect for scrapping photos of my son snowboarding with his dad. I found a layout on Scrapbook.com that showed a creative way to use the paper, so I ended up pairing it with this awesome snowboarding phrases paper and a little bit of glitter paper to add some bling! A die-cut banner with the title stamped and embossed on it, plus a few fun die-cut pieces completed the scene. Hope you enjoy the finished product.
