How to Keep the Joy This Christmas | @jamiepate for @heidiswapp

It's the most wonderful time of the year.


Or is it?
Here's the thing. We can let ourselves forget the true-ness of Christmas.

The unending gift list.
The parties to be attended.
A new year looming in the near distance.

It can all get just a little too stressful.

This season is full of hustle and bustle.
And the joy can easily be forgotten.

Here's how it is going for me.

I am choosing to remember the joy.
Everyday.

How?

By keeping the joy visual.

Here's what I did. I grabbed the Large White background Heidi Swapp Letterboard. This size here can be found at Hobby Lobby. To be sure it is back with the scrapbook supplies. Not that I visit Hobby Lobby often or anything.
Grab a couple of the Letterboard Kit fonts. I went with classic black. Two-inch san serif. And then the one-inch serif to give it a bit of style.
Placed on the center of that Heidi Swapp Letterboard? Truth. Inspiration. A reminder.
Joy to the World.

That little phrase from a beloved, classic, old Christmas carol is magical.

It's simple, really.
A simple phrase.
Only 4 words long.
But it will bring to your heart just what you need this bustling holiday season.

JOY.
