As we are only 2 days away from my favorite day of the year
- Christmas Eve - I decided to pull out an older but favorite layout to share
today. This is one of those timeless
layouts that has almost no chronology, and says a lot about myself and my
faith.
As you can see it's a very simple layout, with little
embellishment, and the photo is actually from a Christmas card. But the meaning
and the tradition it shares is so deep to me that it is a sentimental favorite.
And isn't that the goal we hope to achieve when we create a page anyway? My
reason for scrapbooking is to preserve favorite moments in my life, so that
years down the road just looking at that page, and reading the journaling, will
whoosh me right back as if I were there again.
Because I am an open book, and the journaling is really the
focal point of this layout, here it is for you to enjoy if you so desire:
I hope you take some time to stop and smell the poinsettias,
and realize which traditions of Christmas - or any other holiday - are most
meaningful to you. If they are that important, they are worth some pretty paper and
stickers, aren't they?
My husband and I wish you and yours a most blessed and happy
Christmas!
