Christmas 2006

the preparation...

Making chirstmas cards is somthing that is always worth it... to actually spend quality time on a greeting card that will be sent to family and friends has always meant something to me. Maybe because some people know the effort it takes to make them (and others don't), but when they open it, JOY fills their soul to know that you thought about them.

all finished...

Supplies Used: Paper Source A6 folding cards and envelopes, Dream Street Patterned Paper, circle cut-out and return address are my own design.

my little helper...

Daddy did a good job playing with you and keeping you busy...

second time around...

It seemed so long ago when I was excited to celebrate her first christmas. She will love it this year. We got a sneak peek at her reaction opening gifts... we opened a candy filled present yesturday and she was so excited... can't wait fot the reaction to the toys...

supplies used: Basic Grey cardstock & alpha letters, Hambly patterend apper & transparancy overlay, Fancy Pants florishes chipboard.

Just more layouts in her completely finished one year album...

So many sides of her... sometimes she is sweet and nice, other times she can give me this look like "don't bother me" or " I want to do it my way". It is really the moments to remember.
