Are you getting snow???

So sorry this post is getting up late today!  It's been one of THOSE Mondays...the kind where I forgot it was Monday!!  

Believe it or not, it's been a relatively SLOW winter in terms of our snowfall here in central NY state.  We are well below average, but that may still be a lot for some of you (as I live in one of the snowiest cities in the US, according to the Weather Channel!)  

Anyways, I love how the white snow in a photo just makes it so so bright, so I used some Gossamer Blue Get Happy with it's bright colors to go along with my photos!

The snowflake paper in the background was a bit busy, so I used a plain white cardstock behind my photos and just a few strips of paper.  The "sweater" looking paper is from the Fancy Pants Oh Deer collection!

 I also used some other bits from my stash, including some old Crate Paper Bundled Up, and some clear snowflakes from Studio Calico.  I stitched two circles behind the photos to pickup on the "snowball" theme!

Today, on the FIRST DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your challenge is to use a SINGLE photo and a SINGLE collection!  I used the Gramercy Road collection by Gossamer Blue for this fall page.

I used some strips in the background to create a sort of starburst effect, and then scattered the page with the die cut leaves and enamel dots.  You may notice the tone-on-tone circle that are added to the page....I punched them from some of the packaging from the embellishments!
