Sabrina combined her two challenges in one thread - Sabrina's "Bring in The New Crop" Challenges.  Her first challenge is to use a New Year's picture.  This LO recalls the year my DD received a ballet outfit from Santa.  While we were at her Grandparents that night she was still excited about it & was dancing around.  While spinning she lost her balance & hit her face on the coffee table as she fell.  A week later, for New Year's dinner, while it was breaking up, her black eye was still shinning away for a Shiner New Year celebration.  The paper is My Minds Eye Lost & Found; the journal tag is Fancy Pants and the gem arrow is Basic Grey.

Big Girl Bed is for Sabrina's 2nd challenge, "something new in your life."  This pictures in this LO were taken one year later than the previous one & as does the ballet outfit pic, shows her favorite gift from Santa that year.  She was so excited at the idea of being able to sleep in a big girl bed instead of a crib.  She climbed onto it with out giving her other presents a thought.  As the day went on, she was climbing onto the bed when ever she could.  Who needs toys when Santa brings a big girl bed?!  I used Doodle Bug Designs Cheerfully Christmas line.  The word Bed! is Making Memories Felt Alphas.  I also used a Fancy Pants journal tag, misc green paper, & Stampin Up ink.
