A Merry Christmas .. with Scrap Our Stash

The word challenge at Scrap Our Stash this month is INKS. If we set aside the word for just a moment, I have to say that I love this challenge more and more every month. I really dig deep into my stash and find things I can use up and throw away the packaging, and in the process I find treasures I can use on new layouts. I love, love, love their word challenge.

A Merry Christmas

This is what my word INKS looks like ..

I .. ink (Tim Holtz Distress Ink)

N .. numbers on the left edge of my patterned paper

K .. K&Co chipboard embellishments

S .. stitching (lots of stitching!)

I was so happy to get these photos of GB as a young boy visiting Santa scrapped. Because the photos were taken when he was little, I didn't think he'd have enough memories of this time to warrant three individual layouts. Boy was I wrong LOL! He thinks I'm a terrible nag LOL, hearing "I need your memories for the journaling" over and over until I finally get them. But then when the layout is finished, he's ever so pleased to see his memories written down.

Anyways that's probably enough waffling! If you think you'd like to give this challenge a go yourself you can find all the details HERE.

Happy scrapping!
