Story Scrapbook Challenge : A Christmas Carol or Song

Carol here and aptly named because I love Christmas.  And also I love Christmas Carols.  So this month I want you to tell us a story of  a Christmas Carol or Song.  Maybe it can be about your favourite Christmas Carol and why.  Could be no reason at all you just like the tune, or maybe the words resonate.

Do you have traditions of singing Carols at Christmas –  at Church, at Carols by Candlelight, or in a choir?   Have you played in a band and presented Christmas Carols to an audience?  Have you stood on stage and sung a Carol?  Do you have family concerts?   Do you have a stack of CD’s or a playlist with Carol’s, what’s your favourite – nothing can beat Bing Crosby singing White Christmas in my books.

Is there one particular line in a Carol that gets you every time.  Do the children have favourite Carols?  What a great page to document their favourites.   What’s even more interesting is if you research your favourite Carol and find out the story behind it, that would make a great page too.

Let’s fill this challenge with music, and get that warm fuzzy feeling that Christmas Carols bring.

The creative team have jumped on board with some terrific example pages –

Lynnie’s page is one of yesteryear, I love the story about the nuns and that they went to sing carols to them.  What awesome photos, and I’m trying to pick which one of these girls is Lynnie.  Can anyone pick her?

Supplies Lynnie has used:  Curated Studio Mix 17,   Musical Epoxies 01,   Vintage Christmas add on paper pack.

Shannon has a very special reason why she loves “I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus” the story tells all!  Phenomenal.

And for my page I decided to research Mike’s the story behind a particular version of his favourite Christmas song “the Little Drummer Boy”.  Be careful what you wish for!
