So, I'm over me dilemma. I'm sharing my projects. Family, friends, be warned. But I'm going to do my very, very best to make it as un-obvious who's getting what as possible. {Did you follow that grammatical monstrosity?} Today here's a sneak peek at our family Christmas letter -- no one really cares about having that "treat" spoiled. do you? I fell in love with
this creative design from Amanda Jones on Pinterest the other night. Ours is an homage to that lovely greeting:
That's kind of fun, huh? I hate writing Christmas letters so I was really excited to just highlight a few snippets of our life. Everyone just wants the basics anyway, right? For the front side I used the
Scroll Tree template that I posted a few weeks ago and added a green background and a Christmas greeting. I was surprised that my family chose that one
out of all the
different options I gave them this year. Go figure! Check back for more fun holiday ideas soon. Have a great weekend!
EDITED TO ADD: I've posted a template here: /2011/12/year-in-review-template.html
Have fun creating your own versions!

NOV. 2012: The downloads ARE NOT WORKING at this time. If you would like the
template, please email me and let me know which format you need and I
will send it to you. If you are interested in having a 2012 version of the Year in Review created, please read this post!! ************
I'll be linking up here:
PS: The ads on the side bar is a new thing I'm trying. Let me know if they're just super annoying. I'm on the fence right now . . .
Short and sweet. LOVE IT!

Love it. Any chance you'll post a link to the 'year in review' template for all us not so crazy talented folks?
ReplyDeleteI, too, want to know if you'll possibly email the psd template? I LOVE this and am not so talented in the designing department. LOL
ReplyDeleteI love this idea. So much better than a long, boring paragraph for every person! Pinning this and definitely doing something similar. Thanks for sharing!

Hi, I love your work!!!!! I am really hoping you can help me with a small project...a photo page with several photos on it from my pregnancy. I took photos each week to show the growth of my tummy. I want the photos made very small and all on an 8x10 page. I got the link to your blog from a friend that said you may be able to help me. Can you create a digital photo 8x10 page with several pregnant photos on it? I want to insert the photo page into my childs baby book. Please contact me and let me know if you can help. [email protected]
ReplyDeleteWhat software do you use?
