Join me for this class and create a gorgeous Christmas album using the Christmas collection from Carta Bella. Each year I create a Christmas themed book and each year it gets bigger & better. This book has over 40 pages, flip outs, pull out pages & tags. There is also envelopes, bags & a waterfall album. There is room for so many treasured from photos to lists to cherished cards. I am more excited about this book than ever before. 

The great thing about this book because of all the room, is that it can be used for a December Daily if that is how you document your December. 

Have a bunch of photos from Christmas' past, this is perfect for you too.

This album also makes a great gift!
