Scrapbooking Hanukkah photos is hard because there are no holiday-themed collections available. Years ago, I was on the design team for a company called Crafting Jewish Style. They are about the only company that makes collection specifically for Jewish holidays. Most years I resort to using non-themed collections, working with the colors in my photos vs. the holiday theme itself.
Who would have guessed that Echo Park's Creative Agenda collection would be exactly what I needed to document this photo? I love all of the color! Some of the embellishments on here are for symbolic purposes, like the light bulb because it says, "Bright Idea" which goes along with the candlelight, the "sold" tag because my Dad bought this menorah for Alexa, and the cluster of art supplies because the menorah was made, and painted, by an artist.
Thanks for stopping by today! I'm switching gears tomorrow and sharing a Halloween card with you. :)
Wow, Lisa, what a fantastic layout, love all of the symbolism you've included with the everyday elements!

ReplyDeleteI love this layout so much. Every year I look for Hanukkah related items. You did a great job with the lights / days of Hanukkah. I found and bought a chipboard piece from Blue Fern Studios called Hanukkah Joy. Thank you for sharing.

ReplyDeleteAwesome use of the collection to go with your Hanukkah photo, Lisa!!
