More Holiday Traditions Projects with Mel and Suzanne

Design team member Mel Blackburn created her version of a December Daily album using lots of goodies from our Welcome Christmas collection.  Here's what Mel had to say ... "You might have noticed that December Daily Albums are popping up all over the web, I love the idea of a December Daily Album but between work, family and everything else I just don’t have the time to do a Christmas related activity on a daily basis, therefore I decided to make a condensed version, which highlights events and activities we are doing throughout the Holiday Season. I kept this album simple so I could quickly put a page together in 20 minutes or less. The embellish page was very easy to create, simply use a page protector, cut to size, insert the embellishments and stitch edges. I thought this was a perfect way to showcase the wonderful embellishments of the Welcome Christmas collection. I hope this inspires you to create your very own version of a December Daily. Merry Christmas!"

Design team member Suzanne Sergi documented one of her family's favorite holiday traditions on this sweet layout.  Here's what Suzanne had to say ... "One of our favorite family traditions is writing letters to Santa. I am still lucky enough to have little ones that still believe in Santa Claus. We usually visit him at his famous place, "the mall", and then come home so  the children can write their letters. This ensures that everything is still fresh on Santa's mind. I used the Welcome Christmas collection to document these photos of Macie. I am glad I was able to capture a bit of her handwriting in the process. I used two of the patterned papers on my page, and since this page was about a Santa's letter, I used an envelope on the page. The children do not know, but I keep their letters, and Macie's letter is safely tucked away in the envelope. Love the dimensional stickers from Pebbles. The felt holly, and the Christmas Memories sticker were perfect embellishments to finish the page."
