Christmas in April

Good morning everyone!
.
It is drizzly and overcast here today but I couldn't be happier. We had a local guy come and put in our yard a little over a week ago. We have been going out religiously every 20 minutes every night moving the sprinkler around so that the grass actually grows. I am so thankful for a break today. We saw a few shoots sticking up here and there yesterday.
.
Believe it or not, I have been working on a fair number of Christmas projects recently. The first three are projects I did for Paper Crafts that were not picked up. I will share the ones that did get picked up as soon as I can. :)

This next project was one of my assignments for Magistical Memories. If you read my blog often, you may remember this post, talking about our ginormous Christmas tree we had this last Christmas. Tina posted a great sketch this month for the sketch challenge. Check out all the details here. You could win some awesome chipboard!!! Anyway, I decided to use the sketch to document our Griswold tree. I covered Chipoboard Christmas Trees from Magistical Memories to replace the flower and flourish in the sketch.

I added a bit of flair to the title box by looping ribbon behind the inside piece of one of the Filigree Frames by Magistical Memories.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a fabulous weekend!!!
