That special place I go to when I need to create something fun, hide from something not fun, or just have 'me' time!

I'm working on a few of my Christmas Projects as time permits. There are only 8 weeks and 4 days until Christmas Eve... And, this is 'the time' to crank out the projects my crafty friends!
This project is a Western themed 50th Anniversary Album for my in laws. The Sexton family got together in late June for a beautiful tribute - Western style of course, for Hank (remember my Good Ol' Boys?) and Georgia's 50th. Wow. Can you imagine? I mean, really. Imagine being married to the same person for 1/2 a century! Amazing! A lot happens in 50 years! For one, your kids are nearly 50 (as well as their spouses!).
I am so excited about this little book... finally, a unique project that is special for my husband's family. I love doing these projects... definitely gets me into the Christmas Spirit - making someone's day, documenting why they are special in the lives of others, and perhaps giving them a gift that lasts a lifetime.

Wow, this is looking GREAT! Do they read your blog???? Eeeek, don't give away too much! :)
Oh Andi this is so special. It gives me the chills to imagine they're expression when they receive it. The work you put into these scrapbooks - whew. What talent. Please remember to share with us how this goes over the holidays.
I'm starting to realize something. You must have lots of tools in order to do this. I'll bet scrapbooking isn't exactly a cheap hobby. Yeah, quilting isn't either but what's a girl to do?!
One day I'd love to see a posting with all the tools/implements of your craft. Yeah, really I want to see your hoard of stuff man. I want to see your joy behind the scenes.
