Diva Inspiration Challenge #127

Merry Christmas!! I hope you have a wonderful and special day! This week's inspiration picture is a classic sight to see - traditional santa with a child dressed in her holiday best informing the jolly man what she wants. The magic of Santa lasts for so long, so cherish the moment as long as you can. :)

Diva Inspiration Challenge #126

Today's Diva Inspiration Challenge is still in the Christmas season theme. What I love the most about this week's picture is the photography of it. The ornaments in the front have the focus while the items behind it are out of focus. It softens up the candle flames and just gives the warm holiday feeling. :)

Diva Inspiration Challenge #124

Can you believe just one week ago today we were celebrating Thanksgiving? So much has shifted from fall to Christmas. In the spirit of the season, I think this week's inspiring picture goes very well for the upcoming holiday season. Candy canes are not only sweet and yummy, but a Christmas staple as they are used for decorating, added to many holiday recipes, and dressed up and gifted. What can you do with a candy cane? :)
