to be added ;-)

Today's page is about dreaming - as at this time of the year we tend to believe in magic more often and that our dreams little and big can be fulfilled . So maybe it's good time to think what we really want for ourselves and others. Then you can try to look for a star today and make a wish and I hope I'll come true.

In the photo on my today's page there's a leaflet promoting the new great Polish Christmas movie - Listy do M ( letters to S - like in Santa;-) Lots of great scenes and life stories there but what I loved most was this theme song - an absolutely wonderful version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow sung by Israel Kamakawiwo Ole'.

Journal Your December - day 14 &15

Warning - this post is going to be really long ;-)

First my double page from 14/12 - it's about my fave Christmas smells - cinnamon, chocolate and orange ( I have this wonderful smelling orange-chocolate candle ;-) Those yummy odours make me feel christmasy = cheerful and relaxed. I love the smell of fresh pine too but this is not here yet ...

And these pages are on the yesterday's topic on Journal Your December - how do you collect your Christmas memories? For me the main medium is photography - I just snap a photo a day ( in fact more than one ;-) and in this way capture and express my feelings and thoughts this year. I found two great quotes that are perfect add ons as they speak beautifully about what I'd love to be able to do - to keep this holiday spirit and memories in my heart everyday and not only in December.

Today's page - I felt cold and sleepy this morning so needed a big cup of spiced coffee and some chocolate candle to get into the merry mood ;-)

and if you needed some more ideas on gift wrapping - please check my today's post on DHD blog (click on the image)


I show how we can use digital products in our gift wrapping and share a tutorial on a nice flower/bow (in fact even two ;-) Hope you'll like it.

and as a bonus some more Christmasy music - this time on a very light and cheerful note - my another fave male voice : Jason Mraz singing Winter Wonderland

My page on 11th Dec Journal Your December prompt - decorations. Making decorations and decorating my house for Christmas is definitely my fave part of holiday preparations. Of course I often have more ideas than time to make it come true. But I can't imagine my home not wearing this special holiday cheer "outfit". It makes my spirit bright - always. I like especially lights as they create this warm and magic atmosphere. I haven't put up much of my decor so far, I usually do it just before Christmas. I also haven't decided if to have a traditional Christmas tree this year or maybe just a tree branch with some decor as I've seen this idea and liked it a lot. So yesterday to get into holiday mood I shoot a few selfies with me as a Christmas tree ;-) and as there's still no sight of snow here I used a great new free snowy texture by Florabella to get it at least on photos.
and if you need some inspo for both photos and decor - here's my pinterest board on Christmas.

and some music for you. By now I've got totally addicted to the latest M.Buble Christmas cd - have been listening to it all days long but today - waiting for the snow - let's listen to Anna Maria Jopek and her song Biel (White)
