Hi everyone, it's Becky posting today with a Christmas and holiday related challenge. I hope everyone enjoyed Christmas to the fullest this weekend! My challenge for you is to create a layout about your holiday this week, while the story is fresh in your mind. It's probably not realistic to document the whole experience, but I think just creating at least one page might help if you have holiday letdown or the blues. Plus, I know that as the busy days of this season go by, sometimes the little details will be forgotten if we don't get it done soon.
Wilna created a pretty page for her December journal for this challenge-
If you haven't checked out her blog this month, you should go take a look at all of her beautiful December journal pages. So inspiring! Feel free to take today's challenge as a challenge to complete your December dailies and journals too!
Since our pages were due so quickly after Christmas, I didn't do as much journaling as I would encourage you to do now that you've experienced the big day. I am planning to make another page this week with more solid journaling with my memories. It was a sweet, sweet weekend!
Lots of Holiday Style featured here. I mixed up the title work, using some Holiday Style, Rocket Age and a few of the early collections alpha stickers. I think it's always a good sign when you go back to products that were released a few years ago and still want to use them and they mix well with more recent products.
I look forward to seeing some great holiday pages with your stories and photos! Please share them with us on the OA Flickr gallery.











Love, love this page - perfect photo and the stitching around the text is perfect. :)

Fabulous LO and that baby picture is too sweet~! Hope I find time to play with this challenge as it's always something I regret later when I can't remember the simplest details!
