Very pretty! I love the split page design

Yummy! That is an awesome pile of goodies on that plate! I love how you've made it look kind of like you have a green table cloth with red ribbon trim on your table to hold up your pretty cookie plate. I also love the fun Christmas themed papers you've used for your torn title. Great page!

way to extract! love how you tucked the pocket cards on top AND behind those yummy goodies!

This is wonderful! Love all of the cookies that you have here and they look so yummy! Love those gingerbread men!

Your Torn title looks great and goes so well with all those cookies.

@Karen Thank you for your thoughtful comments, Karen. As I was looking at my page I thought I could add a row of stitching to the table runner's ribbon. Great challenge that I will use again.

@bellbird Thank you. Yes the extraction certainly helped make the page. As I was doing it, I was wishing I could keep the natural shadows, but the color was wrong and it didn't look good-but they did inform how I did shadows, not that I got them all going in the right direction and depth-that was a challenge along with getting the torn paper template to work right. Overall I am happy with the page.

great cookies and title, fabulous extraction on the photo

@Lillyia as long as you are happy, that's the main thing & I know what you mean about keeping the natural shadows - my shadows rarely all go in the same direction, I figure there are generally several light sources when looking at something & just gowith what looks right for each element

@bellbird Thank you so much for that reminder to please myself. Sometimes I forget and think I have to please someone else...the teacher? I don't know in any case I like your point about several light sources and that a good thought to keep in mind. Thanks for teaching me something today!
