NEW52-Week47, Happy Mail

This week has been full of NEW happy mail.  First of all, I received my Tis the Season Christmas Project Kit (now sold out) from Elle's Studio.  It was my first order from them, shipping to Hawaii cost about $10 so I don't think I'll order too often.

Second, my early Christmas present from my dad arrived.  It was a Fuji MP-300 Instant Printer with 5 film packs (100 prints total).  You can't get this baby locally or even in the States.  I had to order it off of eBay from a seller in Korea.  The shipping was super fast.  I think it took about 1 week.  This little printer is what Amy Tan uses on many of her layouts and even takes them with her on trips.  You can read her most recent blog entry about it here.

So what should I do with my NEW Elle's Studio Christmas kit and new instant printer?  Make a December Daily mini album?  Maybe, we'll see how far I make it . . .

So remember in my last post (just a day ago), I fell in love with Liz's (Paislee Press) new kit, This Much, and told you I already had a layout in mind.  Well, this is what was in my mind at the time and I think I executed my plan well.  I knew I wanted a large photo of Bostyn on the top and add the ruler below with the word art, beyond measure.  You can never go wrong with a kit from Liz.  I love her designs immensely.

I think I am finally all caught up with my NEW52, only 5 more weeks to go.  Not sure what I'm going to do next year.  Anyone doing anything fun?
