This is my post for Week 4 of Red Writing's Twelve Weeks of Christmas Blog Party. Just click on the button on my side bar to go see other party participants!
I don't like turkey **GASP** so usually every year my mom makes some ham, just for me (and then everyone else eats it - hey!).
I don't bake (i burn) so I have no baking recipes LOL! Gee, I bet no one wants to come to my house for Christmas dinner! That's good, because I'll be at my moms! LOL
So instead I thought I'd share a scrappy page about apples (i know, it's a stretch - i'm trying here!) It's called - The apple doesn't fall very far from the tree!
The Maya Road chipboard people came with one dad, a mom, a girl and a boy! Since that isn't our family makeup what is a girl to do? Well, I made 3 dads by tearing the dad into 3 pieces. Made 2 girls by tearing the girl into 2 pieces and made the boy into a girl by putting him in a dress LOL! (I kept the mom for another LO)
I made 3 identical pages (except for the pic) because each of the girls look like Snuffy in their own way - esp in the blue blue eyes!!!
I also traces the chipboard trees onto chipboard to keep them as templates. I do this with patterned paper that comes in cool shapes too. I have even bought paper I wasn't that fond of just for the shape LOL!
I can't wait to see what yummy dishes you all come up with!

I trace out fun shapes on chipboard to use as templates too...especially shaped papers...they run up to $3.90 a piece where I live (yes things are pricey here).

Well just call me jealous. I have tried scrap booking ... yeah, lets just say I will just send our kids pictures to someone else and pay them to do it for me. My pages were NOT cute. Like, at all.
