Coordinating Cousins-SOUS

 

As you all know, Since its Friday its reveal time again at SOUS.. I want to give a big thanks to Aymee Gandy for this great sketch and this is my take on it.. I wanted to use the photos of my boys and twin nephews trying to all jump in the pool at the same time.. These photos were taken back in 2006 while we were vacationing in Florida.. I would love to be there in the warm sun right about now, its -6 below zero here in Finland today.. Brrrrrr..LOL
Here is the sketch, I hope you all get a chance to stop by at SOUS and try this sketch out.. It was a little bit of a challenge for me, but I love how the layout came out..
