It's the last day of November (man, that month went by fast)... so that means it's time for a new challenge on the Nikki Sivils' blog! This month's challenge is to create a page using photos taken with your cell phone.
I went with a recent photo I took of Bryn helping Bob put up the tree. For those of you who haven't already read my Facebook status from that day, I'll repeat the story. I had a moment of temporary insanity and allowed my 10-year old to talk me into putting up the tree the weekend before Thanksgiving.
I told her, "We can put up the tree today, but we can't decorate it until next weekend because it's against the law to have your tree up before Thanksgiving."
With a very concerned look on her face she said, "It is?"
I said, "Well... it's against MY law. I can only celebrate one holiday at a time."
I used the Gingerbread Land collection to create my page...
Love the little tree & ornament punch-outs. Makes it so easy to embellish a page. Need some inexpensive red + white bakers twine? Check out my ETSY SHOP!
So... join us in this month's challenge! Use at least 75% Nikki Sivils' products (old or new) for your page and post your link here for a chance to win the Nikki Sivils' collection of your choice! The deadline for the challenge is December 31.
Happy Wednesday! I'm off to Spin class...
LOL... it's against the law! I love that!!!!! Well, I would have totally been arrested, because we put up our decorations the day BEFORE Thanksgiving... but we weren't going to be at home for a few days, so I guess it's okay, right? LOL. Love the layout!!! Beautiful tree!!!
