Hi! I've typed this twice and then thought--no, I can't do any more swaps. Then DH just shook his head and said, "Oh go do it. It's more video game time for me!"

Could I have the 1st page kit group with December, please? Is Christmas-related stuff ok? I can do more "cold weather"-related stuff if that works better.

Thanks for hosting!!

[Michellepooh]

Could I have November for embellishments, instead? Thanks!

 

[Mickeyteacher]

Ladies,
I think snow and christmas themes are great. I know that most of us will use them in our books. I know we do not get much snow, but I think it would be fun to use in my book with pictures of us in shorts or at the beach.... Or snow on Main Street.

[AlexWyattMommy]

Okay. I've got some great snow stamps from Stampin Up and a really cool snow effect pen. So please keep my page kit for January.

It would be funny to see beach photos on a snow page.

 

[Twigs]

Can I have November for the page kit and August for the Embellishment kit?

You nknow, we are making up a snow day on Tuesday because we had a threat of ice one morning---- it's fun in the south!

 

[YodasMom]

I was planning a snow theme for my January embellishments too.

Shawna,
I hate to be a pain, but could I please switch from January to April in the Embellishment group? I'm in the mood to do something more springy (if that's a word)!!

Thanks so much!!
