Here you will find scattered pictures from my point and shoot camera, random thoughts from my little world, treasured memories of days gone by, hopeful dreams of the days yet to come, and a bunch of ideas - because I've always got ideas!

What Is It?

I made this with stuff I have in my art room.

I cannot decide if I like it or not.

Help me.

It's the front and back of an old hymnbook.

I decoupaged "Silent Night" to the cover.

Glued a ribbon at the top, between the covers and did the same with gold fringe along the bottom.

Red star glitter surrounds it.

That's a wooden lamb in the corner.

I tied a pair of bells in the top corner.

I thought that would be enough, but it needed a little bit more, so I added the bow.

So, what's the verdict? Is it good, or is it...

not good?

To be honest, if I had made it I would feel the same way you seem to - liking the idea but not ever convinced I liked the execution of it.

I'm going to give it a try without the red glitter.

But, I'm not sure that is even the problem.

I was thinking the red glitter too...but I'm glad you said it first!

I like it! Maybe I would change just one thing... I think I'd remove the little lamb in the corner (it is a lamb, isn't it?) and I'd put something larger, something like a sprig of holly with berries(plastic or fabric or ?) and partially cover that lower corner of the music. That way you could leave the glitter because it would go well with the berries. Make sense? But like I said, I also like it as it is! Blessings, Debra
