An Old Fashioned Christmas Tilda Style




I hope if you celebrated Thanksgiving that you had a wonderful holiday. I had a wonderful weekend but I ate too much.

Today is my last post as a guest designer for 7 Kids College Fund. I hope my project inspires you to create a Christmas project.  It took me quite some time to get this project together. And sorry about the pictures I took a lot but couldn't quite get them to look they way I wanted.

You can find the following products over at 7 Kids College Fund:
Graphic 45 - Christmas Emporium & Place in Time Paper
Authentique Paper - Peaceful
Echo Park Paper - A Very Merry Christmas
Cryogen Paper
Magnolia Stamps - Snowy Tilda & Christmas Tilda with Cat
Distress Ink - Gathered Twigs
Copic Markers

Here are a couple of closer views:


I am entering this project in the following challenges:
Totally Tilda - Challenge #60 A Christmas Recipe
Tilda's Town - Challenge #28 Anything Goes
Forever Friends - Fortnightly Challenge #50 Glitter and Sparkle
Lovely hAnglar  or Sweet Magnolia - #57 Winter Wonderland
Tammy's Scrapin Corner - #38 Let it Snow

    Karen, dear sweet Karen, I am your REAL mother, LOL! So,you just pack up this little treasure and send it off to me! LOL Seriously, this is gorgeous on every level. I have one of those shadow boxes and I've yet to use it. You made it such a keepsake. Everything is perfectly placed and colored. The snowflake accents are wonderful. It is fabulous! Your mom will be so weepy when she sees all the love you put into this for her.

    XO,
