Christmas Display

Today seemed to go by in a flash.
I am not sure why, but before I knew it, it was supper time.
I didn't get to do 1/2 of the things I wanted to do, but I guess tomorrow is another day.

Today is Day 9 in my photo challenges.
For Canadian Scrapbookers prompt, it is
"Display"
I love to decorate every room in the house..even the bathroom ;)
But this display is in our basement when you first get downstairs.
This is an old dresser.  I bought when I moved out on my own.
It has been stained, painted, stripped down and stained yet again.
I enjoy changing out the displays whichever the season.

I have my paper quilt framed. I had made this a few years ago.  I had also made the wreath hanging off the edge of it.
I sewed the gingerbread lady and snowman stuffies.
In the centre of the display is a scene that Wayne and I bought when we first got married. The little people skate around on the rink and it also plays music :)
The wooden shovel in the left corner is one that my aunt painted and decorated for me one Christmas.
I put a sheet of cotton to look like snow, to cover up a treasure box my dad made me, which I painted. It is more of a Spring theme then a winter one ;)

The only problem with following 2 challenges at the same time, is that they may repeat each other.
For Heidi Swapps challenge, her prompt is
"Christmas Card.
Because I wanted to keep my Christmas cards simple and make them all the same…I only have this one to share.
I used two different sentiments on my cards. This one is from the $1.50 bin at Michaels.

Here is a quick card I had made a couple of Friday's ago.
I just used some paper scraps and a stamp. I don't really care how this one turned out, plus the stamping didn't turn out very good.
But if I run short of cards…this one will be sent out ;)






















I hope you all had a very creative Monday :)

Tracy :)
