Such wonderful memories of this Christmas as I completed this layout. Lots of circles here and I love the flow, thanks to the vellum swirls. Embellishments, besides the punched circles, are Tim Holtz grunge board. Love his seasonal package. The paper and stickers are Little Yellow Bicycle. Merry Christmas to all as you make your own holiday memories this year. May they fill your heart with joy.
It's a case where a less-than-perfect photo could not be contained. Allie Edwards always stresses embracing imperfection and so I went for it this time. I'm glad to be in the big group photo, but it means someone else snapped it. I say, better to be in it. The layout was inspired by my new Bigz Top Note dye from Stampin Up. Love it. So I made my own larger template. The background paper is some lovely flocked poinsettas from Fiskar's Kimberly Polson line. The title is Felt Alphas from Making Memories. And the circles behind, well, that is from Allie Edwards and I just love the look.
I should have taken more picture on Thanksgiving. Somehow, being the chief chef and all, I only got a few. We even had special guests and I didn't capture a picture of them. Oh well, sometimes you just have to make do with what you have. I found these five to be acceptable and actually made a pretty nice layout. The paper is Sassafras Lass and I love the attached die cut borders. I copied their flower embellishments but made my own because I needed orange. The chipboard swirls were left over from a large package by Making Memories I think. The rubon title was some of the easiest rubons I have even used. They were by Arctic Frog. The inspiration for the title came from watching Rick Warren on Fox News the other night. He said lots of Americans give thanks, but not too many give thanks to God.
