Everything that could have gone wrong tonight.. did! Overall I like this layout. But boy, it was tough getting it done! Seems like it would have been a quick and easy one, but, my mistake, I decided to cut out a few snowflakes. Since I couldn't remember how to do it the elementary school way by folding the paper, I drew them out and cut them with the tiniest pair of scissors EVER! It took more time cutting those snowflakes out than the whole page did! Then, it always seems that whenever I want to use a marker, no matter what brand or what color, it always dies by the third letter. Never fails! So, "Merry Christmas" is looking a little weak but, I'll leave it alone for now and hope that I can find the same set of markers here on the island. Back to the "Merry Christmas", after it was all said and done, I realized that I probably should have wrote "Baby's First Christmas", but too late! Then, I wanted to type out the quote because I HATE my handwriting and I think it looks SOOOOO much better to print them out BUT, I ran out of one color of ink in my printer and so it wont let me print out anything! So, I had to write it out!
I thought that I was completly prepared for this page but, of course not. And do you want to know why? Its because Rodney Jr.'s night light is broke so, he is sleeping with his door open and my craft closet is about two feet away from his door. Great! I managed to run up the stairs and into the closet about 50 times without waking him up which I have to say is amazing!
I hope you enjoy this page, one more month out of the way for Tatums first year!
The whole layout
First page
The quote says "The Best of all gifts around any christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other. Burton Hillis"
