Christmas Challenge Week 2

This month is all about taking those fun pictures - like family parties, decorating for Christmas, baking goodies, purchasing gifts, Christmas Eve, gift giving, more family events, watching kids' expressions, parties and so much more!  This month is all about taking the photos - and start to plan out what you are going to do with it all - with next month actually spending the time working on what we plan this month!  
Last week started our first challenges, you can check out the links and main page here!  You started to look at design sheets to plan out your project, products you have right now, and layouts or projects you want to make!  Start with week one's challenges to get up to speed, and lets get started on this week's challenges!  
  1. Start to narrow down the ideas you really like, or at least the project you want to make for the most part.  Do you want an album all it's own, a mini album, a paper bag album, or just a few layouts?  
  2. Start to narrow down the products you have right now you want to work with, and look at specials or sales both online and at your local stores!  While you are out doing shopping anyway - look for any kind of specials for products you like to work with!  
  3. Look at your budget for your supplies and getting your photos developed, how much can you spend - how many photos can you take, do you need to pick up disposable camera's, more memory cards, order photos, anything?  Look at prices and specials to get more bang for your buck!  
With the above project - it started as a simple card...but ended up being a cute framed decoration for my house instead!  I loved adding the embellishments with the JOY letters to create this one of a kind project!  Depending on the items you have at home, this could really be an easy but fun project for you to recreate!  The above picture is altered coffee cans, instead of the paint cans you see a lot!  This is just a fun - one of a kind - cheap version, the Memories in Tyme way! 
Thanks for stopping by,
