Shannon, this turned out absolutely beautiful! I love your ribbon and your simple front cover and I am in love with that large diagonal stripe pattern paper on the front! I also love how you matted with design paper over the top of some of your other design paper...so cute! I think it was a great idea to also use design paper for your circles for the twist tie closure. I just love it love it love it! Your tag is precious and your use of stickers are just all in the best places! Thank you so much for taking time to share this wonderful, beautiful album with us today! Wonderful job on the challenge!!

Angela Marshall I love it so much!! wow your spine is having a party with all the hanging down lovelies! Wow everything is so pretty, well balanced, and such a gentle cozy traditional vibe! Just noticing you posted your pics under this thread, I was wondering, if you were having trouble posting under the "share-your-projects" channel? I want to make sure everyone see your amazing Christmas album!!

Before being done reading your post I'm laughing and giggling so much and only a 3rd of the way through it!!! Hahaha! It's like I can hear you talking out loud in my head. Love it. Okay so this is like the FUNNEST Happy non-traditional super bright Christmas book I have ever seen!!! Love that glitter spine, so much texture ( even if its messy hehehe ) the cats are adorable! The reflective paper adds a party-like spin and so much flare, I am in love! I am diggin the oversized reflective "sequin cousins" that you have draped around too, perfect touch, and the twists and added different details to the design are so great.
