First of all, before i post any Christmas pictures, here are my last 2 Nuts About Sketches posts. I am working on a Disney album from the trip my daughter and I went on in September. The Simple Stories Say Cheese collection is fabulous, I adore it!
This layout was taken by a Disney photographer at Hollywood Studios. I love the picture frame prop, so cool! I suppose we could have smiled lol
As you can see, I rotated the sketch
This next one was during the afternoon parade at Animal Kingdom. I love Minnie Mouse
<3 and she looked sooooo adorable! Amazing that this picture was taken with my iPhone- that's all I used down there and got some awesome pictures!
Now. on to some Christmas pictures and things!!!
My tree and some of the house decorations.
The family portrait- I made my husband get this taken to send to his Grandmother's, so I am lucky that he did it, I couldn't get upset that he didn't smile LOL. Kate is 16, and her brother Christopher is not here- he is 28 and lives in another town.
My beautiful girl and I <3
Soda gets to open her gifts first :) she was so excited and got plenty of treats!
A mobile cart for my scraproom!!!! My favorite gift from my hubby
My Mom and Dad opening their gift from me
The cousins :) My daughter with my sister's two boys. I love this picture. very seldom do we get three of them together now that they are older.
So there you have a little peek of what Christmas looks like at my place.
And lastly, two of the last Christmas cards that I made for my sister to give to her best friends. I really like how these turned out. This first one was an idea I took from Pinterest
On this one, the snowflakes are die cuts I cut with my Big Kick and they are embossed with iridescent embossing powder- the picture doesn't do it justice, as the snowflake is much prettier in real life
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and here is hoping that 2014 treats you all well!!!!

Merry Christmas Darlene. Love your LOs ...looks like you and Kate had sooo much fun ! and I loved seeing your Christmas pics. Your Mom and Dad haven't changed one bit since we were kids! and loved seeing the photo of Kate and Peggy's two boys... I don't think I've ever seen a photo of them! All the best in 2014 and may we remain scrappy friends! Hugs
