scrapbooking with elle's studio
I promise I’m finding my way back to pretty paper and some scrapbooking! I now have a table to work on again, which is a big step in the right direction. Now if I can just make an arrangement with some sunlight, that would be fabulous. I think once we get past these shortest days of the year, that part will improve marvellously. But the exciting bit is this first foray back to crafting post-move is extra lovely fun as the December guest for Elle’s Studio.
This photo is one I came across when I was back home last summer and up close it made me laugh so very much. I’m sitting on the lap of the Santa at the mall, which is simple enough. But up close, that isn’t an old man Santa. It’s not even a middle-aged Santa. I’m not sure if it’s an old-enough-to-buy-beer Santa! He looks like a teenager with a fake beard, and I’m more than a little curious if he was originally hired as an elf rather than Mr Claus himself! I’m sure I believed with every ounce of my six-year-old being. I loved the chance to put all those Ho Ho Ho! themed goodies from Elle’s Studio to good use on a Santa page, and I’m more than a little in love with woodgrain snowflakes this year. (Oh reality, you’re not as fun as pretty combinations of things I like!)
And if woodgrain snowflakes are go, why not houndstooth? Exactly. Elle’s Studio has quite a few items in their Christmas range that would work equally well as diecuts on a scrapbook page or as sentiments on a Christmas card, so hurrah for equal-opportunity paper crafting.
I’ll be sharing more Elle’s Studio fun throughout this week, so if you have a minute between now and Christmas, do come back for a look!
