CHEER

Happy Holidays! Are you ready? I'm not...but I've been having lots of fun scrapping instead of Christmas shopping. LOL

 Disclaimer: "I received product from The Crafter's Workshop to create this layout. The opinions I share are solely my own."

Before I started this layout, I could see in my mind the background... I wanted to use the Fir Branch stencil and the Merry Tree to create a funky background for my layout. I used a blending brush through the stencils to create the background. SOOO Fun. Click here to see step-by-step how to create the background.

Once I was satisfied with the background I used lots of pretty papers and embellishments from Pretty Little Studio to create this layout.

I love layering embellishments together to add dimension. This layout turned out to be one fun, funky, layout, and I love it.

JOY TO THE WORLD LAYOUT

Hi all. Hope all is well! Today I'm sharing this layout I created for Scrap the Boy's December Challenge. I'm not big on scrapbooking Christmas photos, but I love this photo from our Disney trip a few years ago so I thought I'd just scrap it.

To create this layout, I used several journaling cards and die cuts from Elle's Studio. The heart paper, word stickers and tree and "Joy to the world" die cut is from Pretty Little Studio's newest Christmas Collection!

I mixed some enamel dots with green gems for fun. Love the color combination! It looks so pretty.

I used foam squares to pop of a few of the die cuts to add dimension. 

I used a "Right Here" stamp and ink to stamp inside the tab. I love tabs and labels. They are perfect for journaling and filling in white space.

DECEMBER DAILY

 Happy Monday! I have a few fun travel notebook spreads I created into a fun December Daily Book. This was a challenge for me...but I think I made it work! I don't have too many pictures to create a December Daily because I've never created a December Daily mini. I have such a hard time scrapbooking holiday photos! I went through my photo albums and selected a few photos that would work for this month's theme.

I used lots of pretty papers, stickers, chipboard and journaling cards from the Nordica Collection. Love this collection. It's so pretty!

Totally loving the chipboard and sticker dots! They are so pretty clustered together on the photo.

For this layout, I went with the softer color palette. That floral print is lovely! I used a lace metal die to create the border at the top. And added a few chipboard pieces and clear stickers to pull the layout together. 

Lucky for me, Edward loves to decorate the Christmas Tree...me, not so much! But, I do love putting the presents underneath the tree for him. The presents look so pretty at night with Christmas lights on. I'm looking forward to having a tree this year. For the past two years, we have not had a tree since we went on a family vacation during the Christmas break. :)

I added the "favorite time" clear sticker onto the chipboard above the top photo and added the clear string of lights stickers across the middle of the layout. So cute!

This spread was so much fun... I love how this looks in just black and white. Something different...

I stamped the "happy MEMORIES" sentiment on the left side of the spread and then I stamped some snowflakes.
