Scrapbooking goodness!

Like I said yesterday, I've been busy...busy scrapbooking! :D No, seriously, we've been insanely busy, but I have managed to squeak out more than a few pages in the last few weeks! Enjoy!
First up? A gorgeous collab by Designs by Kat and Faith True Originals, Glad Tidings. I combined it with a template by Fiddle Dee Dee Designs, Fuss Free: You Spin Me (tell me you aren't singing the song right now!)


Next up is another Faith True Originals/Fiddle Dee Dee combo, this time using Faiths newest kit, Winter Folly and Snow Wordart and Cheryl's template pack, Fuss Free: Like, Totally!
Nowe we're jumped to this adorable kit by Elise's Pieces, The Merriest Collection (linked to just the papers...but all parts of the kit are there!). Tell me those cheeks don't make you giggle! My sweet GK!
And here's GK all grown up and with no front teeth! This stunningly beautiful MUST HAVE Christmas kit is Holly Jolly by Jennifer Labre Designs. I can not sing the praises of this kit enough! WOW!
And this kit is just full of Christmas Cookie sweetness! Another winner by Jennifer Labre Designs, Sugar and Spice is perfect for all of your holiday (and everyday) baking! These elements are so yummy!
Last but definitely NOT least, a combination of Jennifer Labre Designs' gorgeous Christmas kit from last year, Joyful (still availalbe at OScraps!) and a stunning template by Fiddle Dee Dee Designs for Cheryl's feature at the Daily Digi:
I hope that you feel inspired to create when you see some of my layouts! Digital scrapbooking has been such a joy in my life over the last 2 years! I'm so thankful I discovered it and all it's flexibility and FUN! I've got a few more layouts, but those will have to wait for another day! Merry Christmas to all my blog reading friends...all 2 or 3 of you! :D

A month has passed...

How does time continue to fly on by? I've wanted to post a blog update several times in the last couple of weeks and just never had the time, or, upon sitting down with a few minutes in the evening, promptly fell asleep! Sigh. That's life, I suppose! But I'm here now, so enough with the time flies diatribe! I've been scrapping (I guess I've got time to scrap...just not to
blog! ;) and I've got lots to share with you all!

I've also been preparing for Christmas! As the pastoral couple in our International Church, we've been keeping busy! We had a lovely Christmas dinner, a Christmas movie night, special services and Sunday school lessons, and this weekend we've got 2 meetings: one on Friday afternoon and the Christmas Eve Carols and Candle lighting service. We've attended the Ramallah city Christmas tree lighting (and saw the prime minister of
Palestine, Salam Fayad, which was cool!), and have been baking, watching holiday movies, and lighting our own Advent wreath at home with our kids. I love this holiday so very much! I snapped this cool picture of the Advent candles at Mosaic International Church last week on my iPod:
Scrapbooking post coming TOMORROW! I promise! :D
