Long post alert...

..as I have a few things to share today.Firstly here's the next page in my Christmas journal. The theme for today is about putting the decorations away, this is one thing that stays out all year round. One more page to share!!

Next, I went to my local crop today and made a LO that used up bits and pieces of a kit I received in early December. I have already used these photos in my JYC, but I liked them so much they've made it to a 12x12 page for Hannah's album too. The challenge was to bust some stash (ie use it up!) so this LO does that exactly, very little of the kit is left as I've thrown it all at the page!!! The journalling is about a song Hannah learned at school when she was very small, and we still sing it today (to the tune of Jingle Bells) every Christmas Eve. The holly border is doodled by hand.

And last but not least a happy birthday to my Mum, I won't say how old she is :) Her card is made using some lovely free papers with The Scrapbook Magazine, and a die cut title using my Eclipse.

Love them all Ann! The papers on the LO are yummy. We ahve two or three "Stashbusters" days at our local craft centre - love them!
The font on the b'day card is great - how are you finding the Eclips?

That 12x12 page is just fabulous Ann, and am especially impressed by the brilliant border. Well done for finishing off the kit!
