Hi everyone - Happy December!!!!
Can you believe this CRAZY year is coming to an end?? I want to wish you and your families the happiest and healthiest Holiday Season - and send prayers that we will all get safely through the upcoming months until we can all be safely vaccinated.
To help you escape a bit, we the Challenge YOUrself Blog is sending and "Anything Goes" Challenge your way! You can make a page about anything you like, just as long as you include a photo with YOU in the frame! I decided to use 2 photos that I took, and then played around with in an App - to give them a cool effect. I took them one chilly morning this fall, while enjoying coffee by the fire pit on our deck, under our gazebo, and one later that evening, while enjoying a glass of wine.

If you are looking for "me" in one of the photos - you can see my hand holding my wine glass in the bottom one - so if you are camera shy and want to play along - as long as some of "YOU" is in your photo - you can join in our challenge!
Here are some close ups for you: |

I had lots of fun fussy cutting out the flowers on this beautiful paper! The collection is and old one from My Minds Eye, Market Street Collection "Nob Hill" - I just LOVE the colors!! |
|
I added dimension to some of the flowers and leaves with Nuvo Crystal Drips, and threw in a few gold sequins here and there too! |
|
I love to add a pocket behind one of my photos and include journaling on the back of it. |
|
And sometimes you mess up on that journaling - so you have to add a little washi tape to "decorate" the tag! LOL!!
Thank you for stopping by! I again wish you the Happiest of Holidays, and only GOOD things for all of us in 2021! It's gotta be better than 2020!! Stay Safe, Be Well and PLEASE Wear a Mask! ((HUGS)) ~ Sherri
