December Scrapboxx.. Layouts...

so the december newsletter of the boxx has just arrived... and for the month i was sent the BOY kit

... with the theme being,,, childhood memories of christmas... or a Tradition either new or old..
and here are my 2 that i created from it..
"Santa Photo"
and the closies....
this is the orginal polaroid photo.. {yep i know i should have scanned and reprinted it..blah blah blah..but i ran out of time..yep i know one of the few times that i wasnt as organised as i should be...}.. oh and thats me on the right and my big sis Shell..
i cheated and used the packaging from the frame.. loved OLD SCHOOL so i knew i had to use it.
and the title and the frame.. oh with it i cut the middle out [so i could use it again}.. and filled it with someof the pp and then added the letters.. {ps the little round ones arent in the kit}..
and the journalling.. again from the packaging for the frame...

so next was my original and first layout that i did for it.. well its one of the only things that i remember as a tradition....

"Wake Up"
oh everything here is except of course the stitching is from the kit.. nothing else added....

the title and one of the photos.. and to answer your question.. yes i did sleep with my camera beside my bed so i could get the photo.. funny thing though.. i had the idea in my head... and one night went to bed ..woke at 4 o'clock on the DOT but didnt have the camera beside my bed and thought bugga it i'll do it another day.. LOL.... so then had to force myself to wake up.. LOL.. the things we do...
the journalling...

okay so on another matter.. i just want to thank you all for all your kind words both on here and facebook.. Mum is doing great.. she is complaining she is bored..LOL... and soon after arriving back home from the hospital she lit up a smoke..and YEP.. dad and I did say some nasty words to her.... {SERIOUSLY}... but anyho. she just has to have some more tests but looks like it was only a very minor heart attack but was brought on by her hernia.{its on the inside}... so they think she will have to have that operated on.. but we'll just have to wait and see.. so yep..

i didnt see new years in.. oh unless through my eyelids whilst in bed counts..>LOL....

oh YEAH.. i also did this one with kit but added all the scrapmatts chippies... and i still have a fair bit of pp left for more..
