Journal Your Christmas 2009

Every year, Journal your Christmas includes daily prompts from the 1st of December to the 6th of January, the twelfth day of Christmas. The 37 illustrated PDF files are delivered straight to your inbox so you can read them over your first cup of coffee and mull over each topic for a full day. There's also an archive of the class materials online in case you can't get to your email or in case something dreadful happens to your computer. And like every year, you can go it alone or be as social as you like, with a private discussion forum where you'll find other Christmas journallers who will cheer you on and share your excitement, but if you prefer to stick to the prompts only, that's completely fine too. And like every year, if you're participated once, you can join us every Christmas for as long as you like at no extra cost.
In addition to ideas for writing topics and styles and notes on photos not to miss, the 37 prompts include more than 300 scrapbook pages to inspire your crafting creativity.
Of course, every Christmas needs a little something new, so this year's additions include:
…a guide to preparing your album this month so you can scrap through the busy schedule of December
…a printable Christmas planner to help keep things from getting crazy in the countdown to the big day
…new printable accents for paper scrappers
…a digital kit absolutely crammed full of papers, templates, overlays, lettering and embellishments designed just for the class
…a bonus workbook on getting the best photographs possible this Christmas, with advice and examples from dozens of professional photographers.
so there is plenty to keep things exciting whether this is your first Christmas journal or your fifth.
Like all online scrapbooking classes at shimelle.com, Journal your Christmas includes
…permanent access to all class materials
…private forum for discussion and sharing your work
…prompts delivered straight to your inbox
…ongoing membership — pay just once and participate as many years as you would like at no additional cost.
 

I cant wait to start!

Why? Luke and Joey were playing downstairs as I am uploading pictures; I heard Luke telling Joey that he was going up to tell me ...
Joey: No, dont tell her what I said.
Luke: Mom, as we were playing Joey said his dog will be pissed off if he does that. I just looked down at him and said, "what did you say?"
Joey: Mom, I didnt know that ...
Mom: Know what?
Joey: That it was a bad word.
Mom: Dont say it again! It is a bad word; where did you hear it from?
Joey: TV
Luke: Probably Uncle Tim or Grandma.

A great day full of gratitude

Happy Thanksgiving!

I move through my day to day life with a sense of appreciation and gratitude that comes from knowing how fortunate I truly am and how unearned all that I am thankful for really is. To have this perspective in my everyday consciousness is in itself a gift, for it leads to feeling "graced," or blessed, each time. ~Jean Shinoda Bolen Happy Thanksgiving to my dearest family and friends! I am grateful for you!

November 2009 A Month Of Gratitude




What is Gratitude to you? I love this time of year. I love leaves, the colors, the cooler weather, the holidays but most of all the time with family and friends. I started a share website on Shutterfly and I was diligently keeping track of the things I am grateful daily and last night as I was updating the webpage; I "accidently" erased what I wrote each day; I was so upset; I almost cried!!! I am trying to find my way in this daily journaling of keeping a record of our stories.
