OUAS - December Challenge

Hi Girls,
I have the December Challenge for Once Upon a Sketch to share with you.

Theme: It's December...
We would like you to create a layout and interpret the theme "'It's December.. " however you like based on the following sketch. You can journal as little or as much as you like, but your layout must incorporate this theme and the sketch below. Please make sure that we see some sort of journalling on your layouts and please tell us where your journalling is . Hidden journalling is perfectly fine.

Ideas for Journalling: We know that not everyone celebrates Christmas in December, but if you do we would love to hear all about it. If not, then tell us anything that you like about December..celebratory on not!

Pop on over to the OUAS site for some gorgeous inspiration from the super talented DT and Guest Designer Tara Orr and while you're there, check out all the fabulous prizes up for grabs from our wonderful sponsors this month!!

Christmas Joy

I went for the obvious for this challenge as December means Christmas photo shoots for me.  I am hoping my 2 teens will allow me to take pics this year... fingers crossed!!  I have hidden journaling on the celebrate tag on the right of the photo.

This month one of our sponsors is the lovely Monica Brady who has a fabulous store called The Trinket Track.  I have used some of her gorgeous embellishments on my LO.   Click on the blog link HERE for some awesome ideas on how to use Monica's fabulous goodies.
