Thankful and Blessed

 Good Morning

My last post for the Year, Don't know where it has Gone.
I would like to wish each and everyone A "HAPPY NEW YEAR" and may all your dreams and craft wishes come true in 2019



Its been a busy year, lots of layouts and cards made. Lots of challenges entered. The photo stash is slowly depleting but am sure there will be lots more of the grandchildren and great grand children next year.

I made a few things this year that are way out of my comfort zone. Experimenting with texture paste and stencils, paint and actually stamping on to either a layout or a card and the making mini books .

I' am off next week for a two week stay with our daughters, so January will not be much of a challenge month for me , but i will come home with lots of Happy Snaps of grandchildren and great grandchildren to scrap in 2019

This post is for "Off The Rails Scrapbooking" blog spot and the challenge is 

"Anything Goes"

I have completed so many Christmas Layouts this month , I thought I was Christmases out before it even began.

The layout is of our great grandchildren and the tradition of generations a photo with  Santa.

I stencil the background using textured paste did not come out as clean as i wanted but it has added, so the background did not look so drab. I used Kaisercraft "Wonderland" Collection bits left after making my Christmas cards.

I have not written full instructions as i did not do them as i went , was running out of time to complete this page, Have no idea where this month has disappeared too

Hope you like its
