We have two big plastic bags full of wrapping paper stocked in the living room... Looks like we won't need to buy any for the next few years!

For December's Monthly Scavenger Hunt.

This weekend, AbC is attending two birthday parties. While I wrapped the girls' gifts, AbC decorated the cards and wrote her happy birthday wishes. She enjoyed decorating the outside of each with various drawings related to the theme of each party. Saturday's party involves manicures and pedicures and Sunday's party will be held at the Lehigh Valley Zoo. This all makes for a busy yet festive weekend. I'm so happy knowing she's making friends at her new school.

These are the papers I used as backgrounds for the 365 Days in Colour group during this month of rust and black. It was a hard month to do. Not necessarily because of finding objects that fit the two color choices, but because it was so cold that it was hard to get outside and find objects to photograph. This month's photos were done almost entirely indoors. Here's hoping that March is a little warmer.

there's only a scrap of this, not hardly enough to wrap anything at all, but I love this print!!

I got a bit carried away wrapping this one.
