Christmas in July Blog Hop






Welcome to the Christmas in July Blog Hop, inspiring you to your Christmas stash and use it before all the new collections are introduced this month. Join the fun and create something too, use the hashtag #scrapbookchristmas in twitter, facebook or instagram.

I created a layout using a lot of Crate Paper's Christmas line from last year - Sleighride, as well as other items from my stash. The picture is one from "our Christmas" morning. We had to celebrate Christmas a little later than we wanted this year due to my youngest, Max, being in the hospital over Christmas. (He had a condition called ITP - low platelets - but he is completely fine now and it is typically a one time thing so no real worries of re-occurence - Just an FYI :) )





ETA: Here is a link to my project at Two Peas: December 28 - Our Christmas DayA lot of the products I used are no longer available at Two Peas. I did find the Crate Paper 6x6 pad at Simon Says Stamp, which is what I mainly used for the paper.

Next on the hop is Jen. You can find her at http://myreillyboysandme.blogspot.com. If you get lost along the way, you can head back to Ruth's blog at http://scrapmachine.com/ for a full list of participants.

Thanks for stopping by - Happy Monday!
