Remember when we were little, looking forward to the days when Santa comes? Remember when we considered pulling the "Santa's watching you card" in July? Remember when we were grandparents and stealing a little Santa kiss was our own special Christmas treat? It's true - Christmas is the holiday for all ages. To say there is something for everyone is an understatement. Pure joy, whether you're dressed in your
first Christmas bib or in your favorite Christmas apron, is heartfelt at any age. Reflections continue through this time of year, every year; a lifetime of Christmas memories is still never enough.

Design note: I used a
beautiful piece of fabric that I had had for years on
this layout--I simply Xyroned the fabric onto a piece of
white cardstock, cut it out with my craft knife, and
placed it onto the layout.

Journaling: "The
year before Mom passed away, we spent Christmas in Oregon
with the family. Dan dressed up as Santa Claus to
surprise the kids-only they weren't the only one
surprised when "Santa" got a big smooch from his biggest
fan...his Mom!!! This picture is bittersweet to us...one
of the last ones we have of
Mom."

Editor's
note: With
stickles all the rage, don't forget to pull them out
when altering! Notice the perfect accents on Jenna's
frame - lining the inside and out with green Stickles.
Go for it - add a little glitter to your next project
for the perfect finishing tough.

Design
note: I was going through a box and found this
picture. It was taken just about a week or so
before my son's heart transplant. I loved the font
of the Basic Grey letters but the colors didn't
match so I used Dew Drops ink in Java to ink over
the pattern/color of the original letters. Then I
used my white sharpie to add a little extra to the
plain letters. I carried the dots up to the
chipboard brackets that I had painted with Making
Memories paint. |
