I love this page by DebJ in our gallery. The traditional Christmas colours help to tell a story where the photo doesn't. And the light background she chose for the photo helps to mute and offset the mish-mash of colours that came with the photo. I also love that she told a story with lots of her emotion from her childhood. The idea of her 5 year old self marvelling at the bounty of the stocking is one I can definitely get on-board with! It was a great design idea to keep the embellishments minimal to offset her visually weighty title and busy photo. Thanks for sharing Deb- you've inspired some older Christmas memories in me with your page.
Thank you Gypsy. This was a terrific challenge, and I enjoyed scrapping this memory.
