December 2024 Picture Yourself Challenge
Welcome to the December 2024 month of this challenge - month 18, I am not sure how many more months this will run but it has been fun so far. I really did not think I would be able to make it run this long. I love looking at your unique stories about YOU. If you are new here, this challenge came about after a conversation with my 22 year old son about a certain event and how I did not want to include a "bad' picture of myself, there are many as a busy mom. He then asked that I include more of myself in our books. It occurred to me that we, the scrappers are usually behind the camera and often fail to scrap ourselves - this is a means to remedy that. 

Sooooo....in light of that, this challenge is to get YOU in your albums, your kids albums, your grandkids albums, they want to see/hear YOU!!!   

November is typically the month of family and traditions, some that have been passed down for years and years. 

So this month...... I want you to create a layout about a tradition that YOU have created or continue on as part of your family's history.  Something that is uniquely important to YOU!!!   Being that this is about a family tradition and December is a crazy busy month, want to make this easier this time. you may have a picture of you, of you and your family OR just the tradition. Your choice. 

Here is my example:  (Full disclosure, my layout is not new but yours MUST be).  When my boys were born, I started buying a few ornaments each year of whatever they were into that year or from wherever they had gone. 29 years later. I have an entire tree full. I am now continuing the tradition with my ODS significant other and someday hope to do the same with my grandchildren.  It is an amazing walk down memory lane each year.

Must be a new layout, paper or digital, single or double page. Layouts only.
You can combine with ONE other challenge that allows it.  
Limit ONE entry.  Please link your work here. Deadline is December 31, 2024. A , winner from all entries done correctly will be selected for a $5.00 ACOT gift card from me.

Just to clarify - it says picture of you, you and your family OR the tradition - and then in all caps it says it must have a pic of you?

Thanks

Sorry, I forgot to erase that. To make it easier, I always just cut and paste the month before then edit. I missed that. Thanks :)

No problem - I figured that was what happened - I used to do the same.
