BAH HUMBUG!!!

Hi all!!! Today is going to be sooo busy but really fun - I have two classes today, so I will be stamping my little heart out for six hours straight - well, teaching stamping anyway, lol!!! But first, I wanted to share with you this layout I did of Kayla last Christmas morning. Like you all, I take a lot of pictures (well, I am guessing you do!) and Kayla was getting tired of me taking pics of her, so she gave me this face - but then ended up cracking up!! Well, I caught the look on camera and could not help it, I had to scrap it!! Isn't she just sassy!!! No stamping on this, but I did use my GIANT felt flurries, which I love and are perfect for scrapbooking! I had such fun putting this page together - the deer is a die cut made from naked chipboard. I covered him in Cinnamon glitter, used a little piece of gold trim, and added a small silver bell -isn't he cute??!!! Here is a closeup so you can see him better! Also, notice that I laced all around the edges of my dp with ribbon? I just love how this turned out, really made the page soft!! I cut the title out of red glitter dp using my Cricut winter cartridge - the letters are really fun, if you look at this closeup you can see that the letter A is a tree, and the letter H is actually two little snowmen holding hands! The picture is mounted on Pink Pirouette card stock and I used one of my designer corner punches to mount it. Then, a little bit of pink polka dot ribbon and done!!! I had such a good time putting this page together - I hope you like it!!! Now, off to finish getting ready so I have some time to blurf later - LOL! Enjoy your weekend!!!
