Happy Holidays!

What?! Its closer than you think!!!

42 days until Christmas!!! WHOOT!!

I can't wait! I Just love it when the little ones are old enough to 'get it' but young enough to still believe!! I love the look of my house when its all decorated. I love admiring the lights all around the neighborhood. I love playing Christmas music ALL DAY! I love baking, gingerbread specifically (although by the time the holidays are through, I've had my fair share of houses thanks to all those lovely kits they sell!).

Now if we could just get a hefty dumping of snow we'd be all set! (I need snow to feel Christmassy!)

Anyhoooooo.... Just wanted to share a layout to get you in the mood! (Christmas mood... ahem!)


This layout was created with the newest releases from Petaloo. LOVE their new Canterbury Collection!! The colours are so rich and warm - perfect for pairing with your holiday photos!

The papers and chipboard elements are from Bo Bunny's Noel Collection - just love this vintage inspired line.

These branches were so easy to work with. You can bend and shape them to your desired position with ease and because they are adorned with beautiful blooms, you don't need much more in terms of embellishments. I simply adhered with a generous supply of tacky glue.

Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you have a wonderful, scrappy weekend!
