December projects from Marivic

Hello!! Merry Christmas! Just want to quickly share with you projects I made using our sponsor, UHK Papers. The first page, I used the challenge theme this month.

This paper is from UHK Fruits of the Forest Collection. Using a photo of my daughter, who brings me joy....All my children brings me joy and I'm so grateful that they are in my life. Everything I do, I do for them.

Next page, I also used one of the UHK paper as the background. The colors are in the plum hues so I thought I'd use the traditional red and green X-mas colors and a splash of pink.

Last page...I made especially for my dear friend Agnieszka (Bellaidea). I want to thank her for everything she's done for me and our team. She's been a part of our team for 2 years. I consider her one of my (few) good friends in this "scrapping" world. I've seen her achieve in so many ways and I am very happy for her. Through these times, she stood by me and has remained a great friend...a friend that never judge and always help whenever needed.

So..Thank you Agnieszka....Your friendship means a lot to me...

And thank you to the rest of my designers who's talents are unmeasurable. They've created so many amazing projects for Berry71bleu and had shared their creativity with all of us.

Thank you to all our 2013 Guest Designers..Always a great pleasure to work with!

Thank you and Happy Holidays to all of you!!

I will see you all next year with our new DT Members!

More information on our challenge below.

Here are all the challenge details:
We have a two-part challenge this month. This time of year is perfect to reflect on the past and to look forward to what is yet to come. It's a season for being thankful, to surround yourself with loved ones and to enjoy the simple pleasures life has to offer.

Many call this the "most joyous time of the year." With this in mind, the December challenge is simply: Joy. What brings you Joy? What always puts a smile on your face? Joy can be interpreted in many ways. Think about what person, place, activity, pet, hobby or simple pleasure gives you joy. This can be anything--that first warm cup of morning coffee, reading your favorite book, your family, your dog cuddling up next to you! Think outside of the box.

The second part of this challenge is that you must include journaling. Your journaling must be at least 3 sentences or more. Jotting down places and dates do not count. Document your thoughts and explain why the subject you chose to scrap brings you joy.

Here's the challenge board to bring you some inspiration.
