Deserted Campus

Many of my colleagues dread the winter break, because it seems that this town turns into a ghost town, especially right around Spring Festival. As soon as they can, they flee this campus and our town, touring through Asia, and trying to get as far away from here as they can.

I actually don’t mind a deserted campus, because it seems to me that this is the only time of the year, when this place isn’t actually overcrowded. You see, our school is growing in terms of people, but hardly growing in terms of space, which means that every year, the campus gets more populated and quiet corners more rare.

Except for the winter break. Now quiet corners are everywhere, and to me that’s a rather pleasant sight!

P2D Inspiration: Things I Love

Uff, with Christmas season and the December Daily, it’s been a while for me since I last posted some p2d inspiration. But for today’s post, I found a nifty little website with tons of inspiration; and sketches, too. So, while my page today isn’t really based off a finished layout, it’s still coming from the traditional side of scrapbooking.

Here’s the sketch from Scrap Friends:

 

 

And here’s the page I whipped up based on it.

I used a valentine themed kit to scrap about things I love to do.

 

 

 

The Lobby Christmas Tree

Remember the Christmas tree in the lobby, which I showed you a couple of weeks ago in this post? Well, someone made a sad discovery the other day, and pointed out to me that if you look closely enough you’ll find that the decoration at the bottom of the tree (within the range of what people can reach) has pretty much gone! Can you imagine that? We finally have the prettiest tree in the history of our lobby, and then people go and steal the ornaments off the tree! (Which is actually not like very expensive, or exclusive decoration. It’s just the kind of decoration you can get in any store around here!)

Unfortunately, when I took my camera with me earlier today, for the sole purpose of providing you some proof of this outrageous crime, I had to realize that the tree was gone.

No, no, not what you may think now. No one stole the whole tree. It being mid-January, it was – after all – about time to take it down again.

That reminds me of something …

Oh, right! Maybe I should start to think about taking down my own Christmas decoration …

Freebie Friday: A Cozy Christmas – Part 4

Part 4 of the kit “A Cozy Christmas” is ready for download. Sorry, things are always late.

 

Click on image to download

 

Anyhow, you should be able to click on the image to download. And I’m double checking to make sure the links work. If you had trouble downloading part 3 last week, keep trying. I checked the links, and there was nothing wrong with them, and in my file index I can see that people have been downloading. So, keep trying, and I really hope it’ll work.

The last part of this kit will follow soon, and I’m well into my next kit – a winter themed little thing.

Anyhow, don’t forget that products you download from mistyhilltops.com are for personal use only, and if you’d like to share them with others, simply send them this way.

As always, happy scrapping!

Remember that blog facelift I was telling you about a couple of weeks ago? Well, it’s coming along. These days little sister and  I have been working on my test site again, and it’s coming together just nicely. There are a couple of construction zones that still need a bit of thinking and tweaking, but before long, I think we’ll be ready to launch a new, and vastly improved version of mistyhilltops.com with a fresh look to it. So stay tuned …
