When you put two heads together you come up with a really special album....Karen and I created our own memories while creating this album and I'm so very proud to show it to you.....
Before I show you the rest of the album I need to tell you about the 3rd Anniversary of Sparkles Christmas Challenge and the blog hop. The Design Team would love if you visited to see what we've been up to. To celebrate our 3rd Anniversary, there are prizes and LOTS OF THEM. For more on how you can play along with us, Check out Sparkles Christmas Challenge..... Before you go hopping off into the sunset, I want to tell you if you came to me by way of Amy you came in proper order.....and next you will hop over to Helen's blog. Now here's the thing...if you want to win, you need to leave a comment or link on each of the Design Team's blog pages. Don't forget the Sparkles Christmas Challenge page (see above). I'm telling you....when you see the prizes you will be happy you joined in.
This month's challenge was presented by Shaz and she chose.......
Anything Goes!
So long as it's Christmas
And now on to showing you my album ...
The opening page Shows Santa with his bag full of goodies for all good girls and boys. The next photos show the opening pages. The top photo shows the page flap closed and when it's opened there is room for those first great family photos.....and then there is room for many, many more....
I think Karen and I did a good job putting our heads together, and it was fun creating memories as we created this Christmas Album.
Speaking of Karen. In addition to all the great prizes being offered, Look what Karen is offering to one lucky person. This prize is separate from the others and it's Karen's way of wishing Sparkles Christmas Challenge a Happy Anniversary. The only people who will qualify for this sweet prize are those who leave a comment on my blog page.
I'd like to personally thank each one of the wonderful sponsors for their most generous prizes.
Until later, Good Luck and Hugs from my world to yours....

Wow!!! This album is gorgeous!! I love the papers and embellishments you have used; so warm feeling. And what a great thing to make up ahead of time with spaces already made for the photos. Then all you have to do is print out the photos and add them in. With that idea even I might be able to complete an album. : ) I off to continue the Sparkles hop!
