Merry Christmas/ Pretty Little Studio 12x12 layout

Hello everyone!! I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years!

Today I'm sharing a layout that I scrapped of my kiddos standing in front of the Christmas tree this year. I don't typically scrap the year I'm in when it comes to Christmas, but I like this goofy picture of my littles in front of the tree.

Today I'm using the Tinsel Town collection, featuring stickers. 

I love the pop stickers can give to a layout. It doesn't always have to be a big pop, but its sometimes just enough to pull your eye to the picture.

This layout didn't even start with me matting the picture, to be honest I printed it with one, lol. But I started with laying the larger piece of the red and white Christmas words. Then I put the picture to the right and started layering little bits here and there under the larger piece and under the picture.

I layered my little cluster together on the left side for a bit of balance on my layout and put the wood veneer Merry Christmas title on top and decided that I wanted more on my layout. So I grabbed those cute little (and big) hearts and started adding them above and below my photo and even popped a few up in my little cluster to the left. I thought that brought your eye to the photo more and I loved the way it turned out. To finish it all off I added a little bit of Heidi Swapp color shine.

Good morning everyone!! Can you believe its already Christmas Eve?

Well today I wanted to share a layout I made using the Tinsel Town collection by Ashley Horton.

I got a picture of my Christmas tree from this year and thought it would go great with this collection, so I decided to scrap it. I used a cut-file from Ashley Hortons, The Cut Shoppe, Christmas Magic and cut the title out.

I backed it with pieces from the Tinsel Town collection and started layering behind my photo. I added a few pieces from a cut apart sheet and a few bits and pieces from an ephemera pack.

I added a small amount of journaling at the bottom of my photo about what year this was and a little blurb about my tree this year, finished off my little embellishment cluster and decided to add a small strip of paper to the bottom of the page and then moved on to add a wood veneer tree and a few more pieces from an ephemera pack.

To finish it off I added some splatters of Heidi Swapp color shine in gold lame and that was it. a quick simple layout, showcasing my Christmas tree. Thanks so much for coming by to check out this layout!

Good morning everyone!! Happy Monday! Its the beginning to a new week and I thought I'd share a new project that I made with the lovely Tinsel Town collection created by Ashley Horton.

This is a very simple layout but I loved the cute little picture of me and my daughter from last winter and her little antlers, lol. After I chose my picture, I went for my Silhouette, a piece of card stock and the Stained Glass and The Buddy the Elf cut-files from The Cut Shoppe.

I sewed the Stained glass cut-file to the background, splattered it with white paint. Then I layered patterned papers behind my photo and adhered it down. I cut the Buddy the Elf cut-file and put my title down. 

After that I grabbed the cute paper with all the circles on it and started punching some of the circles out. I popped a few up on 3D adhesive, with some thread messyness behind them.

I added ephemera pieces, love the Buck head!! And you get it in different colors! lol I was good an only added one flair button, I love them and need more!!!

Very simple, 30 minutes to make but I love it!!

Happy Friday morning everyone!! Just a few more hours and the weekend starts!! Woot Woot! lol

Well I am here today to share a layout I created for the Pretty Little Studio/The Cut Shoppe product swap.

I used the Stained glass cut file, but instead of actually cutting it out I separated it in my silhouette software and placed 3 around my page in different sizes and sewed them onto the page in different colors that matched the Tinsel Town collection.

I had already picked out my photo, a picture of one of my little ones playing in the snow last year, she loved the snow! All the kiddos did. After I sewed the stained glass stars on the page I layered some of the pretty Tinsel town papers behind the photo.

Then I started adding the cute houses that came in one of the ephemera packages, aren't they just so cute!

I added the hohoho die-cut as my title. I wanted a few more stars on my layout, so I grabbed the star sticker sheet and added a few of those and a few of the die-cut stars. I finished it off adding a the snow much fun from the cut apart sheet and that was it. 

Everything in this collection goes so well together that the layout came together in no time! Sewing took a bit and it made my fingers a bit sore, but it was worth it!
