I finally made a Christmas layout

So I finally made a Christmas layout. I usually have at least one done by the end of the year but as I still was trying to get my puppy on a schedule I didn’t have time.

Christmas 2013

Normally I have two Christmas pages done by the 28th December. A page about opening presents and a page about Christmas lunch.  This year I’ve only done the page about opening presents and that was on New Year’s Day. I also went to Cardiff shopping so I took some pictures of the decorations and did a page about that too.

 

For both of these layouts each side could be it’s own layout.

Jingle Bell Rock

This song is by the very talented Josef Pitura-Riley who was in my favourite musical Save The Last Dance For Me (which has now unfortunately finished – I did see it 6 times in six months). Merry Christmas.

Two Different Kinds of Christmas

Christmas Pages

Here are three different layouts I have made about Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. All are based on the Christmas sketches by Allison Davies

 

 

 

 

There are still some stories I want to tell about our Christmas but for I have the basics covered so I can get around to them when I want to.

Family ‘Office’ Christmas Party

Since my Mum and sister couldn’t go to their Christmas parties and I don’t go to my work Christmas party by choice, we decided to have our own family version of a Christmas party and went out for dinner.

 

 

The little pink frog was from a cracker and we spent ten minutes hoping him around the table while we waited for our food.

Santa Tracking

So early this morning I logged onto www.noradsanta.org and have been tracking Santa. Watching as he preps and is now flying around world. I’ve taken a few screen shots.

 

Apparently Santa likes to play Basketball and watch the elves skate before he departs.

 

Then he has breakfast and preps the sleigh

 

Then he finally takes off

 

And he quickly delivers presents.

 

It’s now 1.24pm UK time and he is currently in Papua New Guinea and has delivered 13,600,344 presents.

 

I think he has a few to go before he gets here.

 

Happy Christmas Eve to everyone.

Nativity

So yesterday evening I babysat my niece and nephew and we put together this foam nativity scene. We lost a few sheep legs but it was good fun.

Gingerbread House.

Last week my niece and I made a little gingerbread house.  I took lots of photos and made this layout. My first festive layout of the season. It uses this weeks sketch from Sketch Support.

 

Don’t you just love the new Holly Jolly collection from Echo Park.

Waterfront Winterland

Sorry about being a bad blogger. I slipped on the ice walking to work a couple weeks ago, actually twice in two days and hurt my hand so I haven't been able to type.

Quick update, all my presents are bought but still to be wrapped.

So yesterday we had a girly afternoon. Carol, Claire, Mum and I all went to the Swansea Waterfront Winterland after we had been to see the eagerly awaited Twilight. (Great film although I'm not sure about the guy who played Jaspar).

Anyway here are some pictures

Then coming home to watch the final of Strictly Come Dancing. Tom's show dance just made me smile.

Have a great christmas
