8 days of light

This page was published in Dec 2010 SNR issue
 This is a season for all relifions holidays- and our Hannukkah is one of them.
Just as a reminder: we celebrate it for 8 days and each day we light a candle or oil light  in a special candle holder we call HANNUKKIA..
The 9 th candle is the one we use to light all other candles from and it is called SHAMASH
So this page is done for this holiday and the colors are bright and shiny and the  small dreidel on the corner- all glittered is also one  of this holiday's simbols, together with some oily fried food (look for my receipt pages in the blog) and with money presents for the kids- usually the candy shaped  coins, not a real money, and other toys and presents too..
So welcome to our holidays
And now for some challenges:I decided to enter this for any holiday challenge asked- as this is our religion winter holidays
This is a season for Stamp and create- also it is Hannukkah, but still our season for Holidays
Bright and beatiful for Scrapwhispers 
 Sketch for Sassy li'l sketches
 Creative crafts- not stars, but real starlight- for Creative crafts
Colors for TPE
Glitter - on the dreidel- for Crafts and me 
Sew- faux but still a lot- for ABC DT blog
