Traditions

Sometimes our traditions can seem so common that we neglect to document them at all. I wanted to create a scrapbook page about a very common tradition for us....


I used the It's The Little Things collection from Fancy Pants Designs. That background cardstock is a collaboration between Fancy Pants and Core'dinations. This whole layout came together really quickly!


Design Notes:
* I was inspired by the cards in the pictures and made my design to the left of the photos to look like them.
* Instead of using a plain piece of cardstock for your background, try using an embossed one! :) It adds a lot to the design.
* Out of journaling spots? Make your own. I like to cut a few pieces and put them all in a line.

Here are some close up's of my layout:




Do you have a tradition that is so common that you rarely think of it as tradition? Have you scrapbooked about it? Just putting that thought into your head. :)

Have a wonderful day!!!

Traditions

We all have holiday traditions. They could even be really simple things that you wouldn't even think of scrapping because, well...you know it, it's second nature to you...you don't even think about it. Today on the My Little Shoebox blog, we are sharing layouts about traditions. When I first got this assignment, I thought of a bunch of traditions we had...but I scrapped about most of them already. But there was a simple thing that we do every year, that I am not sure I have ever documented. Every year, we spend Christmas Eve at my in-laws and Christmas morning at my parent's house. So that is what my layout is about today.


I used the Holly Jolly line from My Little Shoebox. And I used Helmar adhesives to put it all together. I used primarily the Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive. There were a few of the stickers that I popped up with Helmar Zapdots too.

Here are some close up's:
