Manifesto: Noun. A declaration of one’s intentions.
Starting December first, I will keep a Christmas journal. In it, I will write something every day to reflect on the holidays of my past, enjoy the holidays of the present and dream about the holidays of my future. To some, this will be a stack of papers and trivial scribbles, but not to me. I am taking back my Christmas, I am letting it be something I relish and, most importantly, I am giving at least fifteen minutes every day to myself no matter how crazy this season becomes. I hope you will share, encourage and understand as I make something with my own hands, my own words and my own memories.

This is taken from Shimelle's blog regarding the Christmas Art Journal class. I finished my cover. Can't wait to get started on the inside! It's gonna be a good month!
I might add a little more *BLING* later but, for now I am happy with it!
Have a great Friday everyone!
Peace, Love, & Caramel Corn~
