White Christmas Dreams

On a cold winter's night, as we lay snug in our beds, visions of white danced in our heads. Will we wake from the night to find snow covered trees? Will it blanket our lawn, will it cover the eaves? We're dreaming of a white Christmas tonight; oh dear Mr. Frost won't you please, make tomorrow snow white? For a bit of nostalgia and to capture the dream, craft a snowy white layout with White Christmas Dreams. You'll find snow-covered branches and stars that shine, snowy white lace and frosted pine. For peace and noel this winter collection has what you'll need, it's snowy and white and dreamy indeed!

Always by BooLand Designs

"Each of us, as we journey through life, will face dark days. But, at the close of each day we find tomorrow, and with tomorrow, hope for new light. Such is the richness of life; it is how it has always been, and will always be. Always is a beautiful display of this constant - the always present hope for light in the midst of life's dark shadows. In this evocative collection, dark days are represented by black elements, while light is depicted in the vibrancy of life - rosy flowers, green leaves, and a golden butterfly. Whether hope and renewal is your theme, or a wedding, memorial, or anniversary, Always has just what you'll need to create an elegant backdrop for your photos and memories."

Vintage Summer

I just finished a layout for the White-Space Challenge at The Studio.  A layout like this is completely different than what I usually do but it was fun for a change.  This is a picture of my Great Grandmother-I believe it is her wedding portrait.
