GCD Studios Spotlight

As I was blog hopping this evening, guess whose mug greated me on the GCD blog?  That's right. Mine!  What a nice surprise.  I knew it was coming but I wasn't sure exactly when.  Thanks so much, Heidi, for the spotlight and for your kind words.

Since I'm on the topic of GCD Studios, here is a page I made this week using their Loverly line.  My oldest daughter is VERY curious about Santa Claus right now.  Every day she talks and talks about him asking question after question.  Today we took the girls to an event in the city where they got to see Santa and his elves, get their faces painted, and eat lots of treats.  They had a ball. 

And so the questions continue. 
I may need to do a part two of this page!

"Deep Santa Thoughts"


Supplies:  Paper (GCD Studios), Wood Swirl, Pearls & Gems (Kaiser Crafts), Chipboard (Scenic Route), Acrylic Magnifying Glass (Tattered Angels), Letters (Jenni Bowlin, Websters, Making Memories)




Since I made the page, I have more questions to add:
-How old is Santa?  Five?  Six?? SEVEN!?!?
-Why does Santa say, "Ho, ho, ho"?

I know there were so many more.  I need to keep notes. 

Before I sign off, I must discuss the design specifics of this page.  The page came to life courtesy of a challenge Heidi issued on the GCD blog and a page template by Pam Callaghan .  If you have never visited Pam's blog, I highly recommend it. She has such a fun, graphic style that I knew I had to give her templates a try.  This page uses one of her Flower Templates.  I have bookmarked several others that have caught my eye.

That's it for now.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
