I lifted this layout by Scrap With Penny from the Simple Stories gallery. The pictures are of the little almost dead Christmas tree that Mike bought me. He saw that I hadn’t done any decorating and didn’t have a tree and he knew how unusual it was for me. So he bought me this little tree that could. I don’t know if it will live or not but it certainly made my Christmas much more jolly! For the Title Challenge. For the Graphic Design Challenge – I chose the blue bag with the gold border. My inspiration was the color of the bag and the gold border. I added a gold border around the red patterned paper and around the journaling block. For the 100 Sheets Challenge – 1.
