Last minute Sally...

Hey all! Remember me?! It's been awhile...

Who else is NOT ready for Christmas this year?! It's officially Christmas Eve now that the clock has struck midnight and I haven't finished shopping......and I haven't even STARTED wrapping........and I am STILL working on my Aunt's scrapbook album!

So typical for me, right?! 

I am not even going to embarrass myself by admitting how many pages I have done.....let's just say that I probably won't sleep until after Christmas dinner, at this rate!

Nonetheless, I wanted to show you the double page layout I finished tonight. It's been awhile since I have tried to tap into my creative juices, so I had to find a challenge or two to play along with! 

So, I got hunting around and found the "Whip It Up" challenge, over at The ScrapRoom and decided to play along! I also used a great sketch I found on Pinterest, making a couple of changes so I could convert it to a double page layout.

The Whip It Up challenge asked us to use gold embellishments....and one would THING that would be simple enough but much to my dismay, once I got to work I quickly realised I had very few gold choices. LOL!

I am happy with the outcome though. Let me know what you think!
(As always, sorry for the poor quality photos.....HAHAHA!)




These photos are so cool! I don't know if you can READ any of the stuff on my layout, but this was Christmas 1973 for my Aunt & Uncle! I am loving seeing all these old pictures and watching their story progress...

Anyway, I best go start the next page! I will not be satisfied unless I get at LEAST 7 more layouts done. 

*SIGH*
