Winter Snowball Fight Layout

Happy St. Patrick's Day, my friends!  Are you wearing green today?  Or getting pinched?  All three of my boys left for school this morning wearing Celtics jerseys (go Celts!) while my daughter wore a bright lime green tee shirt from the movie "Tangled".  I'm in green too....but I think my husband forgot.  And he's the Irish one!!  :-)

By coincidence, the layout I'm posting today is mostly green too.  I scrapped a couple of pictures I took of my middle son playing in the snow last winter.  He's my trouble-maker (you'd never know it with that cute lil' face, would you?) and no snow goes unthrown with him around.  :-)  The center photo actually shows him about to throw a snowball at me!!  I love how the photos captured the falling snow....and it was falling fast!  I used the Winter Frolic cartridge for the boy, the word art and the tag.  The top layer of the word art is glittered cardstock...so wintery.  I held off journaling until I can find the date of the photos...oops!  My new Peachy Keen 'Wide-Eyed Kids' stamps came in handy for the little guy's smiley face...I'm loving them!
