Stars And Gingerbread Children this year ...

So, I finally got around to clicking pictures for our Christmas card this year. I put up white sheets, plopped a funny red Santa hat on my son's head and snapped off a few photos before he got cranky. That happened soon enough though, so I sent him off to watch "Finding Nemo" while I experimented photographing some stars and cookie cutters. The Christmas Card Layout turned out quite nicely and I am very pleased with the result. The colours are whites and reds with a gently spattering of gray/dusky rose here and there. I made the entire layout in Photoshop CS as opposed to sticking a picture on cardstock and laboriously scrapping all around it, like I did last year. All I need to do now is stick the layouts on store-bought blank cards and send them their merry way!!

Here are some of the abstract pictures I was choosing from for the layout.
