Christmas Art Journal Day 6
Tags:Playing around with ideas from yesterday and today and how much I love the twinkle of holiday lights. It is one of my very favorite things.
The journaling (printed on a transparency) says:
this is what I love.
this is what I remember.
this is what I think of.
for me, every christmas must
be filled with the twinkle of
white lights. lights that fill
my home. always in awe of the
glow.
lights of yesterday that lit my way when I would sneak out to our living room as a child.
lights of today that illuminate the darkness when I wake up in the night to check on my sleeping boy.
The painted chipboard squares are from Technique Tuesday. Paper from 7gypsies and Paper Source. Words on the bottom are cut out from this month's issue of Body & Soul (they have the best stuff in that magazine). Tab from Scrapworks. Stamp and paint from Making Memories. Rub on from Basic Grey. Jewels from Heidi Swapp.
And, you will laugh. I just noticed that I totally forgot to put the tree with the date on this page. Will add that on now.
