Another page complete. I played along with Paper Issues A Nashville Christmas Carol challenge. I also played along with BYSS December Stash Dash. This was day 16 use a Gnome. I used a kit from Lickety Split Scrapbooks.
I began this blog to document my POTD (picture of the day) for our Project Life album in 2010. In Sept. 2011 I had our first baby and I plan for her to have the most documented life possible. I have continued each year with Project Life, but also have expanded my blog to include layouts and other creations. Life has gotten busy, so I don't post as often as I used to, but am still determined to try. I would love to have you join me on our journey! Thank you for visiting!

New Layout - Gingerbread House (248-249)
Christmas is over....time to scrap!
I created this layout for the CSI Case file #377 challenge. I used the color scheme, mixing many patterened papers, I created a Christmas layout, adding elements like candy, candy canes, I used an older date stamp, I used not two but 5 different alphabets for my titles, I used enamel dots (similar to nuvo drops), and I used a speech bubble tag for the photo description on the right.
I also played along with Paper Issues Dec. challenge The Christmas House and scrapped our gingerbread house making annual tradition.

New Layout - Quarantine XMAS (246-247)
Merry Everything!
It's been a crazy couple of weeks, but I am FINALLY ready to relax and enjoy this season with my family. BTW that means a lot of scrapping - I hope. This is the only layout I've done recently and I am way short of my 365 page goals this year, but my number of 247 isn't all that bad......considering the year.
This is from last year our tradition of our elf bringing our family PJs on XMAS eve. This year he event brought our puppies sweaters!
I created this layout for CSI casefile 376
I took inspriation from the scene, using words like the framed words. For my evidence, I used all the colors, plaid, wood grain year stickers, I framed my photos using a black marker, I used Christmas themed elements including poinsetta and christmas patterned papers, my photos are of dogs, I included metal words, arrows, a calendar date card, and a chalkboard element for my Quarantined title. For my testimony I documented something about Christmas and framed my journaling. I even included a letter from our Elf, Rufus.
I also played along with Paper Issues Dec challenge The Christmas Bow.
