I believe in SANTA!!

I had sore feet and insomnia last night so I did this layout to keep me busy. These pictures of James were taken when Jayne, Keith and James came to stay with us for Christmas 2006. It had been a long time since we had kids around at Christmas and it was so much fun. James was just 9 at the the time and still believed in Santa which is so sweet (Well maybe he thought if he didn't believe he would get less for christmas, smart cookie!!! ) but still it was a fantastic Christmas and one I wont ever forget.

I do love the felt fusions, so easy to work with and they add such great texture and I just could not resist sewing this little jingle bells on aswell lol.
I have been trying to dip into my box of forgotten stash and this time I came out with these metal words and this one was just perfect for the job.
I don't often use paint direct to the layout but it just seemed to work for the snow, my friend Emma inspired me as I had recently seen one she had done with paint and an added extra so I was inspired by that to use paint for snow and it seemed to work well with the Rusty Pickle paper. I have lots more pics from that Christmas that I must scrap soon.

Thanks for looking, have a great day xxx

I love the dimensions you have to all of your LOS, but more importantly I need MORE cats - I have three and would love another - Willow is the spitting image of one of mine (apart from the white on her nose/lip)
