Happy Christmas Eve!
Do you have any traditions for Christmas Eve? We go to lunch with my Mom! I am really excited and then I have to start cooking for Christmas brunch and dinner! Love it.
Today I have a new layout to share using Core'dinations cardstock. I wanted a very Clean and Simple look to this layout so that the photo is the main focus.
I started with a white base. I then cut my top and bottom borders using my Silhouette. I then tore the edges. I then layered it on a green strip and tore those edges. Next I matted my photo with the same green and ran it through my snowflake embossing folder. I then made a journaling card using the silhouette and once again backed it using the green. I added my title and added just a hint of embellishments: a doily and wood veneer snowflakes. I love how this turned out.
The photo is at my son's Christmas party. I was able to be a homeroom mom because our breaks started on different days. Can I tell you how excited I was! Jack looked so cute with his Santa hat!

Love your layout, it may be clean and simple, but there is so much texture in it! Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas! :D
Such a fun and festive page! Love the tree borders and how you pulled one tree to use beside the photo.
I love the blocking in this and the torn paper — such opposite styles, but they really work well on this layout!
What a sweet picture mary Pat and the layout is so clean! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
so totally adorable.. Merry Christmas
Such a sweet layout and so happy that you got to spend the day with your son at school :)
We celebrate Christmas Eve with my husbands side of the family. So I spend the day preparing my part of the meal for the family dinner
This is such an adorable layout. And I love that you got to be his homeroom mom! I can't wait until I can do that!
We usually have our big celebration on Christmas Eve (we are Italian, so we do the whole 7 fishes thing). And then our Christmas Day is very very quiet. Only this year, we didn't go on Christmas Eve, so that was different!
