December 20

Day 20 of the Countdown to Christmas! Here is the box I made:

And the lovely box that traveled all the way from England from Jan Smith:

I'm working on a Christmas paperbag album. It's still a work in progress, but I'll share a few pages.

I used paper from Graphic 45, Making Memories, and Karen Foster that matched a subdued, vintage, and homespun style for the book. I added vintage fabrics and trims to give it an aged feel.

On this page, I stitched part of an old embroidered handkerchief for the background.

More trim stitched on to create a little pocket.

I need to finish the book and fill the pockets, but that might not happen until next Christmas.
