Holiday Gifts

I spent the morning working on Christmas presents--it's good to put my mind on busy stuff right now. My in-laws and parents basically ask for nothing, so I make them scrapbook pages of the grandkids. Here's a few older ones I made for them this past year:


Here's the layout I sent to my parents:


I like the dramatic background paper. It's so gorgeous, it doesn't need many embellishments. Still, I added a cluster of embellishments around the title.

This one I made for my in-laws. I liked clustering trees to add to the theme of family tree. And may my sister-in-law Marty forgive me, but I couldn't fit her name in the journaling tag. It was the whole family--except her.


I normally don't have an issue with sending layouts away, but I'm having trouble with these two. Gosh, I love them. Ah, well, the season of giving.
