This evening I walked into our living room to find Cartesia decorating our Christmas tree with some of her toys from her kitchen set. I could help but laugh at her creativity with the decorations. I am sure tomorrow there will be many more of the "kitchen" decorations on our tree.

There were only two toys so I decided to do a diptych. The layout is exactly like my day 5 - slumber picture. This is all I could think to do, sorry!

Hey, if you don't tell they're from the play kitchen - who would know? Decorations are getting wilder and wilder these days... Great processing and nice Christmas colors.

Well what a creative one she is! I've seen teacup Christmas ornaments for sale in upscale gift shops and they charge a fortune for them, I bet these were much cheaper!

I like the way the tree looks in these images, and the strong color of the ornaments as a result of your processing. Well done.
