At the rate I'm going I won't be doing any of her prompts. I will just do what I did on each day for the month and maybe even add some photos. I really haven't even had a chance to check out her prompts.

In case anyone is wondering....

I am keeping up on daily photos and doing my daily journaling in my Project Life app, but until I get Christmas cards behind me, there will be no scrapping here. Not even pocket style.

Remember my vow in January to make 5 Christmas cards a month???

I didn't keep it.

Although I did make quite a few with my Paper Pumpkin friend Susan. So if I can dig out that box somewhere, I may have the problem solved.

I'm making that vow again for 2016.
Ha ha ha

Joel found me in Tuesday Morning looking at Christmas ornaments. He said, "Hey I like these Christmas cards." First.time.ever. I am off the hook for handmade Christmas cards. I love my husband.
2016? Will take more time for the card swap with my PAO sisters, make cards for my mamas and my kids and everyone else gets store-bought cards (which Joel will be in charge of choosing!).

Speaking of - Debi, our Durham Tuesday Morning is closing. They had a whopping 10% off everything in the store. I bought some washi tape and a photo album. Joel bought over $100 worth of toys for the kids (which adds up quicker than I imagined!).

Those pages are really nice, Jill.

People swap days around on the JYC forum all the time. When I did it the other time, I took a lot of photos of our town lit up. On days when I didn't have a specific photo, I'd add one of those photos to the page and tried to pick a photo that might relate to that day's story/prompt.

This time I have extra photos from the newspaper article about the professional Christmas decorator. I'm going to add them in on days with no photos or just write.

It is all whatever you want it to be.

Wow, Pam, I can't imagine a Tuesday Morning closing!

Update on those Christmas cards that Joel found. Turns out that the artist is a good friend of Joel's brothers. Small world, right? The artist heard about the card buying scenario and is sending Joel a signed copy of the print.
