Lasting Memories "Holiday Cheer" using Graphic 45- Christmas Emporium

Merry Christmas everyone.  Only one week to go!  I don't know about you but December has gone by so fast.  I guess it true that when your busy and have lots to do the days go quickly.  I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas with your families and friends.  I am looking forward to a great time with my three granddaughters 23 months, 13 months and 5 months.  What a joy it is when there are kids at Christmas.  

That is why I really enjoyed the challenge and the inspirational photo this week. 

The  Lasting Memories Challenge #69 is " Holiday Cheer".  Also it is time for the Design Team call.  So make sure you check out the challenge and read about being a DT member.  I will tell you being on the Design Team is a lot of fun and sure keeps you scrapping all those wonderful photos.   

For this weeks challenge there is an inspirational photo.  Isn't this so cute?  I love it!  Right away it reminded me of this years Graphic 45 Christmas paper "Christmas Emporium".   I love Graphic 45 paper. My only problem is making the first cut when I get new paper as I love it so much!

Here is the double page layout.

  I used Graphic 45 paper and chipboard pieces, ribbon from Michaels, Creative Charms 

embellishments and K and Company embellishments.  

I almost forgot the background paper is pre-embossed Recollections colored core Christmas stack from Michaels.  This sheet has all different embossed Christmas words which I sanded.  

So lets see your Holiday Cheer layouts this week at Lasting Memories.
