The Memory Nest summer challenge #4

here's challenge no 4, I am trying to keep up. http://thememorynest.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/summer-challenge-reveal-and-share-4.html

 the twist on this challenge is to used a pop of red and chevrons. I know its summer but I decided to get some of my Christmas photos out of the shoe box and into an album. some photos are so old I cant remember which Christmas it is but when your a kid its the same every year. being unable to sleep because your excited, getting loads of new toys and getting two weeks off school yay!. The one year I think I was about 7yrs old,  my Dad pretended to be Santa he wanted whisky and biscuits nice try Dad but its illegal to drink whilst flying reindeer. I cant remember what age I was when I stopped believing though, memory like a fish so its a good job I write everything in a journal.
 for this project I used my old stash from Papermania which I need to get through so that I have a good excuse to buy new stash. some times I just buy stuff and pretend I've had it ages when the other half questions why my stash pile is growing. shh don't tell
 I tried out my new Tim Holtz Snow flake rosette die and they come out really well so I'll be sticking them on every thing.
