2023 In Review - Cricut Crafts
There's a section in the back of my Christmas Planner that has collages, like the one above, of our Christmas decorations from past years. Each year has its own page. I didn't make a page every year, but I did it somewhat regularly - and this is my favorite section of my planner. It also has copies of every Christmas card, from the years when we sent photo cards, and it includes letters from, pre-facebook, when we sent a Christmas letter. Even after we stopped sending a Christmas letter with our cards, I would send one just to my Grandmother. All of that to say, my planners are often as much scrapbooks as they are organizing tools. So at the years end, I like to add photo collages to the sections - reminders that I really did get something done, even though may days it didn't feel like it.
I seriously didn't think I had crafted much in 2023 - It's very easy for me to focus on what I did not get done, and not recognize what I DID accomplish. Once I started pulling up photos of all the things my grandson and I made this year... well, I did a lot more than I realized. :-)
