Christmas in a Box
One of the things that I find makes it possible to create an album or a journal with daily entries is limiting. Gathering one set of supplies plus basic tools and not worrying about the rest of your stash once you’re started. Or at least not too much. And you may very well have enough Christmas stash to keep you making Christmas journals for the next three decades. If you do, by all means pull it out and put it to work. But if you don’t, this might be just the thing for you this Christmas. It’s Christmas in a pizza box.
The Snowfall kit has lots of blue tones with an emphasis on ice and snow and frosty winter. Like scrapping outside. In Lapland. I think you’d need gloves for that.
The Father Christmas kit has lots of rich reds and browns with a vintage feel. Like spoiling your dinner by eating Christmas chocolates by the fire. And probably getting chocolate on your new clothes.
The Snowfall kit includes:
8 sheets of 12×12 cardstock – including tan, green, white, red and blue
1 sheet of 8.5×11 bling cardstock (red, green or dark pink)
1 sheet of 6×12 die cut cardstock in green scallop
23 sheets of patterned paper, including:

These kits are designed to make a full album, up to 12×12 in size, throughout the Christmas season. You may want to add some additional cardstock in colours that match your Christmas. From there, you’ll just need your scissors, trimmer, adhesive and black pen and you’ll be set!
If you purchased the items in the kit individually, they would come to at least £42.65 before postage and packing.
Both kits are available in limited numbers for £36.50 + £3.50 postage and packing.
