♫ ♪ Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the wayyyyyyy ♪ ♫

Oh yes it's that dreaded month of the year, the one where we start to panic as we haven't got anything ready for the big day!!!!

Some of the best gifts you can give are hand crafted and just to help you with making them this months challenge is going to be all about making gifts with Scrapbook Max - so just to add a bit of fun and a different slant on scrapbooking this months challenge is all about hybrid scrapping (hybrid meaning print and cut out to make into a physical item)

I have designed a little 12 page booklet that can make such a great little gift for family members, these are brilliant for grandparents, aunts, uncles, school teachers, teenagers friends and are so cheap and easy to make

I have added the greyscale template so you can all make your very own version of the booklet or if you are feeling extra creative you could always design and upload a template of your own so others can make a hybrid from your design, be that gift boxes, cards, calanders etc

Rules:

1) using the template attached make your very own memory booklet
2) If you wish to design and make your own hybrid design please do, remember to share the template so others can have a go too
3) all pages are to be uploaded to the gallery and the link posted in this thread
4) Challenge ends 31st December

The template is set to 8 x 8 but if you wish to make a larger version you can easily reset the pages to 10 x 10 or 12 x 12
You can download the greyscale template here: FST_December_challenge_hybrid.sm2t

To add a little fun you could always lamenate the pages once they are cut out and add the booklet to a keyring or move the photo areas and make them slightly smaller so you can add a calander to each page

PS it would be great if once you have completed, cut out and put your hybrid together to take a photograph and share that so we can see your glorious creativity

Thanks Fiona for the challenge. This program can do so much more than scrapbook pages. I am glad to see you challenged us to give it a try.
