    Beautiful layouts, Heather! I especially love the third one with the stockings. Great idea for a family Christmas picture near the tree!

      Thank you!
      I usually always start with a sketch and then just go wherever the flow (and my mess) takes me. The first layout was based on a sketch from one of the Scrapbook Generation's "sketches for scrapbooking" volumes. The second layout was based on another layout I had done that started from one of the Close to My Heart Sketch books. The last layout started with the idea of the stockings and then I worked around that. I always struggle getting started, but usually once I get going it comes together.
