Good Morning everyone! Melissa here and I’m sharing a Christmas themed layout with you today using the November exclusive products and the “Good Cheer” paper collection!
Supplies used: ‘Tis the Season Stamp Set, Elle’s Studio November 2016 Kit, Good Cheer Pattern Paper Collection, Deck the Halls Wood Veneer, Stars and Hearts Frosted Acrylic, and Joyful Stickers.
I love pattern paper but sometimes have a hard time using it when it has a bold pattern on it. I LOVED the piece of pattern paper from the “Good Cheer” collection (from a couple of years ago) that had the various colored diamonds across it but it was too busy to use as a solid piece of background paper. Instead, I decided to cut out some of the diamonds out and place them in rows across the left hand side of the paper and then stitch them down using my sewing machine. I placed a piece of the wood-grain paper on the right side of the layout and layered my photos and 3×4 journaling card across the lower right hand corner.
I loved how the end result turned out! To finish it off, I placed various tags and embellishments from the November release on my layout. I used some of the frosted acrylic pieces and placed them in a few diamonds and tucked some tags, stickers, and wood veneer around my photos!
Make sure you share your November projects with us! I love that this month allows you to either complete Thanksgiving/Autumn themed projects or Christmas/holiday projects!
