9 days of Christmas


Today only one page for you...I made it yesterday evening and used the new kit of Lily Designs '9 days of Christmas'. It's such a wonderful kit..well..I am such a huuuuge fan of JJ..I love all her stuff..both digi and hybrid. I used a picture of my boy when he was only 4 weeks old, December 5th 2002! Soo..that is exactly 7 years ago...In the Netherlands we celebrate 'Sinterklaas' on that day...and so will we do today. Last night I wrapped up all the presents for my boys and when my parents arrive here any minute, we will start....such a great celebration for the kids!!

Have a wonderful evening and please leave me some love, I would love to know who is visiting my blog :)

I made this page for a journaling cahllenge. I used 'Halo' by Holly Designs and Jofia's Little Labeled Alpha. The page is about how guilty I feel about the death of my dog Quincy...maybe it is not true the way I see it..but this is how it still feels..and that hurts.
