Design Team Work for Scrap-A-Doodle-Doo

Hello all!! It has been a while since I have had a minute to actually write a blog.  This layout is the first one for me for Scrap-A-Doodle-Doo in Ramsey, NJ.  I was shocked and delighted when they asked me to be a guest designer.  I was excited to receive my box and see these beautiful Simple Stories 25 Days of Christmas in there!! So, with out further a DOO, here is my layout!

The journaling reads: 

Christmas 1994

This would be the last Christmas that we were all together.  Rick and Chris 25 Years, Courtney 18 Years, Brian 9 Years, Taylor 8 Years.

I wrote over the words "I'll be home for Christmas" with my Martha Stewart Markers.  Every time I hear that song it reminds me of the amazing Christmas' past where my entire family was together.  They were the most amazing times in my life and the memories I hold the nearest.  

Thank you for visiting my blog!

Merry Christmas! and Big News Coming

I just wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! The holidays are a favorite time of the year for me.  I am surrounded by friends and family, and enjoy the magic of the season.  Yes, the holidays are busy and stressful, but at the end of the day, what matters is that you spend time with those people that mean the most to you.

I hope you enjoy your friends and family this holiday season, and also make some time for crafting for yourself!  I have missed scrapping these past few weeks, but will be creating more memories to put into my albums.

This will be a busy week for me, Christmas, starting a new job, AND I have a BIG announcement coming around January 1st.  I am so excited but it is top secret!  I could announce it now but I would have to kill you!  HAHAH!!

Here's to a Merry Christmas and I hope to have a few projects to post before January!

With Warm Thoughts
