Happy, Happy Christmas Blog Hop

Welcome to the Happy, Happy Christmas Blog Hop!

If you came from visiting Gina Brandstetter, then you are in the right place.  If you just happened upon my little corner of the blog world, simply start here and continue hopping until you return here -- our fun hop is one big loop for your viewing pleasure. 

Today's hop features alternative projects using the products included in this month's Happy Happy Christmas special.  These special bundles contain everything you need to create five 2-page scrapbooking layouts, with enough left over to keep your holiday crafting going!

I always take an insane amount of pictures during the Christmas season.  I could probably make a complete scrapbook just for Christmas every year.  When I saw all the leftover pieces after creating the layouts in the HHC special, I knew I wanted to put together more layouts.

To create the layout below, I found a sketch from one of my new favorite blogs -- a 4x6 sketch blog.  Once I found the sketch I wanted to use, the layout came together quite easily.  I love how the Happy Happy Christmas My Crush pages and Picture My Life cards coordinate together and are so versatile!  Thanks CTMH for encouraging us to think outside the box with these great products!

-- NOTE --
the kraft paper is actually my desk pad, not a part of the layout.

Supplies used:

*Happy Happy Christmas My Crush
*Happy Happy Christmas Picture My Life cards

*12" x 12" Whisper cardstock
*City Sidewalks complements
*Marvy Uchida LePen journaling pen
