A Combined Challenge effort

Hello to everyone who drops in to Jumbled Crafts. The weather here 10 minutes ago was very dull and raining now there is a hint of blue sky and maybe even sun :) I haven't been outside yet but I bet it is cold brrr

So while I was out in the snow yesterday I thought of a walk we did a few of years ago. It was almost Christmas time and quite a nice day when we set off to walk almost 5 miles along the seafront and the cliff top to Sewerby Park. The more we walked the the thicker the snow became and the snowflakes were some of the largest I have ever seen. Not a clue why we kept on walking as we knew we would have to walk all the back as well. 

Here is a scrapbook page I have been meaning to make for ages so I will always be reminded of one of the most surreal moments in my life.


When we finally arrived at the park I bumped into Santa and he asked what we were doing out on such a day--I asked him what was he doing in Sewerby Park and he said 'he was giving the reindeer a rest'. Vic asked if he could take of photograph of the two of us together and Santa said 'certainly'--he really is very nice you know. There were other photographs of the day but mostly they look all white as the snow never stopped all the way back home.

Now for the Challenges I will be entering with this page-

The Clear it Out Challenge asks for you to have a snowflake somewhere on your project and to use something up--I used the snowmen emblies which I have had for years and never knew what to use them for.

Next is Use your Stuff where the theme is Let it Snow. I used my snowflake punch which was jammed so I had to try to get to work before I could use it. It does say use tinfoil to sharpen old punches so that's what I did. It still sticks a bit so I will try to use it more often I think.

Now to Make my Monday where their theme is Santa-The Big Guy. Santa is certainly bigger than me but so are some garden gnomes :(

I really enjoyed making this page and I hope it is suitable for the 3 challenges

Have a great day

Love Chrissie x
