Whew! What a ride this past week has been! I can't believe we're only a month away from Christmas and I have never been this behind in preparations. This is week two of J being away and I think everything has finally caught up to me.
If you can believe it I am currently in the middle of decorating for the holidays, creating all my handmade gifts, designing our holiday card, running the house, working and recovering from a nasty slip last week that left me with a sprained back! Holy cow I'm exhausted just typing that! Sometimes I may put a little too much on my plate. Maybe a bit.
Either way, let's get to another fun layout from a Christmas past shall we? This is part one of six from 2008. That year was a big Christmas for us as it was the last holiday with our family before being posted out into the middle of nowhere. And what better way to start than with a delightful school concert!
 |
| I adore these pictures of E! At the time my camera was terrible so unfortunately, I was only able to scrounge a few usable pictures from the blurry bunch. This was when I really started using brown craft paper more and experimenting with combining lots of crazy patterns. |
 |
| That argyle sweater vest is killing me with cuteness! I found that small silver frame at a dollar store and figured one of those darling snowmen deserved to be featured. |
 |
| This tassel came from a gift bag and makes a great accent! Look at E just belting out the Christmas carols! |
 |
| I love the cream colored rub-on! |
 |
| I cut the title on my Cricut with the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge. |
That was the beginning of our 2008 Christmas, I hope you enjoyed it! Every year I look forward to seeing E sing in the school concert, it's one of my favourite holiday traditions. I'd love to hear what some of your favourite traditions are!
Happy Scrapping! Candice
