Well, as they say, all good things must come to an end, and this will be my last post as a member of the Scrap Our Stash Design Team. I am so grateful to have been a part of this talented bunch of ladies for the last 5 years!! I can't believe it has been that long, and I've enjoyed every minute and every layout I've been challenged to create - think about that - 2 layouts / month, x 12 months, x 5 years = 120 layouts!! ( There are actually 123 layouts in the Scrap Our Stash label on my blog!!) OH MY!
While I have so enjoyed the creative journey with SOS, I felt it was time for me to step down for a bit. Working from home seems to offer me less free time - not sure why that is... but I know I am blessed to still be working and working from home in these unprecedented times! I'm still going to "get scrappy with it" and continue on with my other design teams, but I felt the need to cut back for now. I hope you will continue to follow my scrappy posts, and also play along with all the talented designers on the Scrap Our Stash Blog. You may see me join in once in a while too!
That being said - this last layout is bittersweet, as it is a reminder of our Friends Bakefest from last year. Due to Covid, and wanting to be safe, there is no Bakefest this year, but we will have to pick 2 days next year to make up for it!!!
(Maybe Christmas Cookies in July - we can only hope!)
Here is the sketch I used for my inspiration - I also had to include Holiday Paper, and a Glittery or Sparkling embellishment:
Here is my layout for your inspiration:
Thanks again for stopping by! I hope you will play along with us on this month's challenge at the Scrap Our Stash Blog, and I wish you and your families a very HAPPY and HEALTHY Holiday Season, please take care, stay safe, wear your mask, and be well! ((HUGS)) ~ Sherri
