This is one of my first designs for Memories Live On. I love the paper on this one. The swirls are so whimsical and pretty. I also feel like I’ve finally broken away from traditional Christmas colors. It’s hard to stop myself from constantly reaching for reds and greens. The blue really adds some warmth, I think.
