Scrap Queen

I have to admit, as much as I love Christmas, I have a hard time scrapbooking Christmas layouts. I think it is because it is the same theme for pages and pages that makes it difficult. But, I can't bear to not have my Christmas album out for the month of December and for a couple of years now it has been behind. So, this year I was determined to get all the Christmas layouts completed. I've finished the last two years and am now on Christmas 2015. No surprise, but I'm running low on Christmas layout spirit. So, I decided that I better find some Christmas mojo. And that is where sketches come in! I love discovering new challenges and new challenge sites. My favorite challenges are sketch challenges.

So, I realize I've been doing a terrible job posting any of my projects - for that I apologize to. . . myself. :) I have been making handmade gifts for friends and family for the last couple of months and have not spent a lot of time scrapbooking. I suppose I should have taken pictures and posted about all those handmade crafts, but that for some reason did not occur to me so, oh well. Since the holidays are now past I have been trying to update my family Christmas album. I am a couple of years behind. So, I thought that I would share some of those layouts here. Enjoy!
