This week’s challenge at Document Life Workshop is “choose a past challenge.” As a new member of the team that was pretty easy because I had many old challenges to choose from! This time I chose “Use Wood” from back in mid-October.

Christmas Lights by Heather Awsumb | Supplies: Life Stories Christmas by Zoe Pearn and Kristin Cronin-Barrow; On the Go Element Pack, Almost There Element Pack by Katie Pertiet; The Good Stuff This Week Alpha by Mye de Leon; # Christmas Brushes and Stamps by Ali Edwards
Yes, this is the second Christmas page I used this kit on. I saw it and fell in and love and wanted to use it as much as possible. Actually, it’s only as I’m writing this that I realized that I used two papers in both layouts. Oh well. I started the layout with the idea of using the wood grain as the background paper, but it was a little too much so I decided to use it as one of the bands instead. Also, once again, I used Scrapbook Coach for my guide. It’s a pretty straightforward take on the lesson, but I added the star mist just because I liked it.
