Dear Santa, I've Been Good....



This Dear Santa Memento Book can be used to keep the photos and journaling of a child's (grandchild's) holiday excitement as he or she opens the gifts.  On the first page of the book the child's name and wishlist can be written in the form of a letter to Santa with the Dear Santa Embossing Folder from Altered Pages.  The inside pages are completed to form little pockets where momentos and photos can be placed.  There's even a place for journaling on the opposite pages. Add some more embellishments or stamps to help personalize the pages to correspond with the photos inside.  The Joyeux Noel paper adds to the cuteness of this little book with its Santa patterns and gorgeous holiday themes.    This wonderful gimp trim adds a strength to the binding so the book can be opened often and yet adds a nice little finishing touch with it's loops to the cover of the book.  Be sure to celebrate the holidays by capturing photos of those special moments and then creating memento books of your own with the help of the wonderful products from Altered Pages
 
Happy Holidays!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
