Sugar Plum



                                Sugar Plum



 Merry Christmas everyone!  May your holiday season be bright and merry filled with love and good cheer.  I found these old Christmas papers way down in my paper pile and thought they would be perfect for these fabulous Creative Embellishment chippie I have the privilege to work with each month.

 My husband suggested I should put a red dot on the reindeer's nose.  I rather like the look.  One of my bead garlands started falling apart so I gathered up the loose pieces for this layout.

 A bit of lace, tons of bling and everything covered with an assortment of Shimmerz products make a magical landscape.

There is nothing sweeter than young love especially at Christmas.  I have tucked the journaling on the back.  It tells of the bitter sweet memories this photo brings.  My daughter's new life with this wonderful man and our last Christmas in San Antonio before moving to Dallas.  

It is with a very sad heart that I also learned that Once Upon a Sketch has announced this will be there last challenge.  I would like to thank all the ladies there that have inspired me each month.  I have learned so much from this site and am sadden to say goodbye.  I wish you well and Merry Christmas.

 I was inspired by the snow on the tray and the  blue color plus loads of bling.
