Christmas in  September .!!..... well its never too soon to get started ..... is what I told myself as I set out to put this Album together .

The papers I used were from a Digi Kit. Designed by TSUNAMI ROSE. A lovely lady living "over the pond" in America. . Her work truly is outstanding.  The kits and decoupage sheets, ephemera and pockets are all carefully married up to make a well co-ordinated Junk Journals and the like .  The Etsy store is linked under the video I made of the Album on You-tube . Click the link above ...should  you like to see these papers in all their glory. .   I decided to make a Christmas Album.   I had bought the kit a good while ago .  Because I had to practice making Albums. Once I was happy with the Album format then putting the excellent papers to good use was very, very easy .   I made the themed Album with a purpose in mind. I think if one works to a theme or to a specific person the making process becomes a thing of love and creativity.

I am sure many crafter's look at completed  projects made with such specifics in mind . A  great deal of satisfaction from the completed item is  experienced . To then share that work brings even greater happiness . The pinnacle being when a subscriber or follower decides that they too would like to make a similar project.   I think this cycle is what makes like minded people enjoy  craft to a greater extent. . Creativity is the  giving and sharing of an idea.  Inspiring another person to add to and make the initial project become theirs .   Craft is a passion for many . I am one of those many.
