Gifted Stamp-a-memory challange

Challenge time over at Stamp-a-memory. Criteria this month is to create a gift (including photos) or scrap a layout about a gift.

I was wracking my brain for ages until I remembered a decoration my mum made for our neighbours years ago. It was a decoration that was made basically from old Christmas cards cut into circles.

Using the idea, I made two versions, one just like my mum made all those years ago with Christmas cards and the other by stamping and making my own paper. Both versions have a photo of a child wearing a Christmas hat as they are thank you gifts for them to give to their teachers on the last day of school/kinder.

On the back of the photo it says "thank you for helping me grow this year" the child's name (in their handwriting) and 2010

 

 

Materials list:
Stamps: Christmas classics, family phrases
Ink: Wild wasabi, versamark
Cardstock: Whisper white
Accessories: Black embossing powder, real red 1/4" grosgrain ribbon, real red stampin' write markers, circle scissors plus, fine galaxy glitter, multipurpose liquid glue
