For my project today I made a LO telling our story of how we celebrate Jesus' birthday ...my son and I have a tradition of  reading Luke chapter 1 and then we get our favorite dessert or a dessert that we want for that year and put a candle in it and then we sing Happy Birthday to Jesus! :) It is a great tradition and hopefully something Josh will hand down to his children this tradition.

I planned on taking a picture of our dessert this year and put it in the green space.  That way a recorded memory for this year of 2011.

For the recipe of the LO: First off I used my Red Stickers from my collection to spell "Happy Birthday Jesus" then I used a Christmas printed paper from my stash (can't remember the origin of this) and sticked it...hehe..and then typed up the story/tradition on the computer as well as the other words on white cardstock then cut some red paper to pop it up a bit to stand out. Then I cut the squares from the glitter green cardstock I had in my stash for the nativity scene and the future picture of the dessert and pasted that.  The flowers I just cut three large size and then a smaller size which the smaller size I smashed them after I inked them a bit with green ink pad then I put a adhesive glitter gem for the centers and then cut the leaves and added that to the flowers then pasted to the page. Voila...easy peasy but pretty! :) Don't you think the flowers look like the Poppies? hmmm....
