Joy

Here is a layout done with pictures taken last year on Christmas Morning.  It is Novalees's first Christmas.  She looked so cute in her Christmas dress.  Christmas this year will be fun too...as she will be able to open all them toys herself! 
I did not write down what I used for this layout so there will be no recipe for this one.  Sorry.

Seasons Greeting from Edwin


Another Maggie Christmas card made!  This little cutie is Santa Edwin.  He is reading over his naughty list.  I hope I am not on there…ha-ha.  I used the Mistletoe striped paper but I wanted to add some glitter to it so…I took my quickie mini glue pen and traced over the red lines and sprinkled some micro fine glitter on there.  Then shook of the excess glitter and replaced it back in my jar.  The end results in some homemade glitter paper.  I also added some Polar white diamond flower soft for the fur trim on Santa Edwin.
