I know everyone is probably so ooover holiday pics, but I wanted to share these before I forget..
Here was my holiday packaging... don't you love wrapping gifts? I knew I wanted to use paper doilies in some way and found these yellow and blue vintage ones on Etsy. I adhered them to the packages with adhesive spray.
I cut one of the yellow ones in quarters and adhered them to the corners. I found the bright pink and white houndstooth paper online.. a huge roll for a wholesale price and i still have more left!
The *CUTE* tags are from the Etsy shop, Shop66, that I actually purchased last year, but put them away and forgot about them. I was sure to use them this year and believe me, i had a hard time actually using them! They are perfection. Gretchen's collection of Japanese illustrations is to die for.
I thought you might also like to see some outtakes from the photoshoot I did with the boys for my Christmas Card image (the hard copies I actually just mailed yesterday!! i HAVE to do better next year. ugh!)
Believe it or not, that shot wasn't posed in the least! :-) It was actually after I had already taken the "normal" shots and the boys were in full grumpy mode. After I pulled it up on my computer, I couldn't believe how perfect it was. Here are some funny outtakes..
and omg, these made me laugh so hard. Cooper looks crazy/evil and Campbell looks down right miserable! I'm pretty sure Campbell was in mid-tantrum with feet stomping and all.
Yep, those are blurry feet Campbell has. ;-)
And here are some outtakes from the Blythe Family photoshoot.. :-)
I'm sorry I never followed through on that freebie gift tag that I mentioned... it was on my neverending to-do list for the holidays and was unfortunately pretty low on the priority list. :( I hope to make it up to you with a freebie soon though!
Those photos are SO funny and cute!!! I watched Christmas story about 5 times this year. It's my favorite Xmas movie of all time.

How cute are those pics of the boys!! Of course Cooper is having all the fun with the BB gun which probably added to Campbell's obvious misery;) Priceless!!
