I lifted the Fabulous Debbi T! :o)

"Who's Debbi T???" you ask.
She's one of my Favorite "peas" at http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/ . (sorry I'm really new to all this & I don't know how to do the cool link thingy)
I discovered her about 2 years ago when I noticed her scraproom in a post. She had the cutest sprice racks that she had used for storage and I just had to send her a peamail and ask where she had gotten them. She replied soooo quickly & even included a link! I thought "wow! she's really nice. :o) " and I started to notice her post more and more. Of course I checked out her gallery and fell in love with her work and her "life story" (it's really pretty cool). About a year ago I noticed that she had a blog and quickly bookmarked it and I've been lurking every since. LOL. (I even have her blog listed on the right over there, go ahead and look at it!)
This winter she posted a layout "Go elf yourself" and I knew Instantly that I had to do it!
She had gone online & "elfed" herself - I had too! But she had figured out a way to SAVE it, print it, & ultimately Scrap it! It was instantly a hit in her gallery and I wasn't the Only one who wanted to know "how did you save it?". Being the sweetie she is she quickly posted directions for saving & it was EASY.
"Elf" was such a Big part of our holiday season I just had to do it! We are such "Elf" dorks around here that Dev & I have "Elf" ringtones on our phones during Christmas & we've been known to quote lines from the movie at very random times! :o)
So I set out to "lift" Miss Debbi T, of course my biggest challenge is the same as always. She does a 1 page LO usually and I always do a 2 page LO. But I think I did ok. If you want to check her's out (and you should) it's here (I think)

Sorry, I'm new to this photographing LO thing & I'm not very good at it. If you have any tips for doing it better please let me know.
The Christmas balls across the bottom are "our" favorite quotes from the movie "Elf".
There are 3 journaling cards in the library pocket - they read:

card # 1
subject: Buddy the elf our new tree topper!
date: 12/07
Our new tree is soooo Tall that we couldn't get our Santa on Top! When I was looking for a new toper I couldn't find one I liked. But I fell in LOVE with this little guy & had to bring him home. He was adorable sitting at the top of our tree! When it was time to name him, Buddy was Perfect! :)

card # 2
subject: "ELF"
date: 12/7
Last year we saw "Elf" for the 1st time! It instantly became our New Holiday Favorite! Below are some of my favorite lines from the movie! "I like smiling, it's my favorite!" :)

card # 3
subject: http://www.goelfyourself.com/ Hot online trend of the season
date: 12/7
Everyone was doing this! So much fun - load your pics & watch your Goofy Elf dance! (I lifted this layout from one of my favorite "peas" @ two peas in a bucket - Thanks DebbiT for the inspiration & instructions on how to save this fun trend for the future! :)

CHURCH CAMP UPDATE! Devan called just before 8:30 last night, they had made it to their destination safe & sound. :o) He sounded very excited and like he was having a GREAT time. He had already made it to his cabin and "claimed" his bed, he said "it's very square looking & it looks real comfy". They had a "meeting" scheduled so we didn't have long to talk. He's enjoying sending several photos from his phone, can't wait to see what he actually has on the camera when he gets back. Hopefully Alex is taking plenty of photos and is going to share with Aunt Sheila when they get home.
