Design team member Melinda Spinks has a fun holiday tradition to share with us today. Here's what Melinda had to say ... ""Every Christmas we keep up a tradition with our Postie and leave a bottle of wine in the letterbox as a little thank you for delivering our mail throughout the year and to wish him a Merry Christmas. This year I decided that I'd dress the wine bottle up with a little bottle box and tag creating a simple yet festive decoration. And although I haven't used traditional Christmas colours or papers, the powder blue from the 'New Arrival' boy collection in combination with the red ribbon and candy dots still create a festive look to the gift."

Design team member Christa Paustenbaugh shares her family's fun Christmas Eve tradition on this adorable layout.  Here's what Christa had to say ... ""We have a tradition every Christmas Eve where we make reindeer food and spread it out on the front lawn for Santa's "ride"!  I'm a horrible holiday scrapper, so with this I got out of my red/green thought process and went with primarily the Twitterpated line.  Love those journaling stickers and when paired together are great for longer journaling!"
