We made two pages, had a lot of fun and enjoyed a very decadent apple, apricot and date filled shortbread.
We used the fabby holly berry designer paper and on our first page we made this wonderful present filled sleigh using the top note die. I saw these all over the Internet but I believe the original idea belonged to Lori Heilling. They all turned out so good, I only wish you could see these pages in real life, they all have accents made from the fabulous red glimmer paper and they do sparkle like mad against the dark espresso card base. The sleigh was made from the top note die and the Swirl Scribbles sizzlets die. The presents to fill it were pieces of designer paper cut with square punches and topped with bows and other pretty accents.
Look at that paper… yummy!!
Next page followed a similar layout with space for four smaller photographs this time.
The Serene Snowflakes stamp set was stamped in white ink and a mixture of shimmer spray mixed with white reinker was sprayed over to help with the flurry of snow look.
The tree was made using the pennant die and a crazy mixture of different size punched circles in various designs were used to adorn the tree.
The title was cut using the Timeless Type sizzlets alphabet.
