I finally got pictures of my Christmas projects made!
My mother found these blank journals in her storage and I decorated one for Christmas.
I used scrapbook paper and a packs of premade stickers and embellishments but I still think it is very cute.
Back cover. My nephews had drawn on them with marker so they had to be covered. It was fine I like how it all worked.
Inside front cover. I found a great stamp set and this is of the beginning of the Night Before Christmas.
This is more Victorian but I had to use it.
Inside the back cover. The song is Silent Night. It was on some great paper I got.
This was my first project. I do so like Santa!
I am a great gluer! hehe
I love the simple things that I can do in one sitting. I have never been good at long term projects. Guess I’ll work with what I’ve got!
I was excited to find this wreath! I used my artificial one on the advent wreath so I was glad to find a real one for $8!!
It is too fat and the storm door smashes it. But It sure smells good when you walk in and out the door!!
It is in the 30’s here for another day. I love the cold. I am so glad we got cold because the storm here in the east really didn’t give the Raleigh/Durham area anything to write about.
I hope it stays cold through next week. I don’t really like a warm Christmas.
Merry Christmas!
Hugs, Lisa

ReplyDeleteSuper cute projects, Lisa! The journal is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI'd love a real wreath! Growing up in the forrest of Washington state, I never had even heard of a fake wreath until I moved to Texas! I thought they were soooo tacky! Ha! They don't bother me now but I would still rather have a real one! ♥
~WOW! Lisa I adore your Christmas-y journals. So pretty my talented friend.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas & Many Blessings!
