Today we have Lexi Bridges joining us with a festive Christmas layout!
Lexi shares, “When it comes to scrapping December photos, I get excited. I hardly ever scrap holidays or birthdays, I’m not sure why, but December… that I can do. There seems to be some extra magic that comes with scrapping photos from this time of year. Pair that with some Elle’s Studio festive product and you are already half way there.
This layout is all about out annual tree picking out excursion. Because of the layout’s theme, I thought the multiple tree images was on point. i started with the tags. I love making tags. It’s a great way to use up paper scraps or bits of embellishment packs. These tags shown here can be made really fast. I just hand cut (no measuring) triangles from pattern paper and old dictionary paper to create geometric trees. Super simple and would be so cutout use as a gift tag on a gift or even a card.
The big tag on the side houses my journaling in a whimsical machine stitched tree. I didn’t draw the tree in advance, which gives it a more imperfect look. Imperfect and I get long quite well. After it was sewn, I ran it through my typewriter for the journaling. You can see I kept the colors pretty traditional as far as Christmas goes. I love how that red really stands out on the tags, the stamps (love those Number Stamps!) and the letter sticker title, which I tried to make look garland-like. Thanks for having me Elle! Happy December, everyone!
