Christmas / Winter themed elements
Something fuzzy (felt reindeer)
Metal (charms)
Ribbon

Frame (for journalling)
Cursive font
Topic - Document Christmas
Presentation - Write the journalling in a frame
Inspirational word - Merry

 

Nutcracker Lego

Hello, back today with the second layout using the Christmasy December Papermaze Kit. Although the papers are all from winter or Christmas collections, at least one side of most of them can be used to create non-Christmas layouts. Please see the Scrap Paper Scissors Blog for full details.

From the kit I used:
Simple Stories - Winter Cottage collection - Season of Wonder
Carta Bella - Farmhouse Christmas collection - Gift Tags

Walnut and Aspen Bazzill
Wooden Star
Tree Stamp
Paper roses

From my stash I used:
paper flowers

That's all for part one. I will be back with two more layouts in a few weeks.

Edgar & Ava

Lime Scooters

Here is my layout for For The Love Of Pretty Paper's - Be Colourful - Week 7 Challenge - Georgous Green. The bonus is to use layers.

 I used a photo from my trip to Washington D.C. last December to visit Catherine.

I used a sheet of White Bazzill and splattered some acrylic paints  over the page using grey, black, lime and green paints.

The border is Echo Park - Beautiful Life collection - Borders paper (heart side).
Layers are Bo Bunny Believe, and some Dream Street Papers.

For the title I used Thickers Glittery foam cucumber letters, and some Bo Bunny combo stickers.

The Prior's Pumpkin Patch

I'm back today with the forth of my DT layouts using the November Papermaze Kit.

For my last page I selected this photo of my little niece. She is sitting on the doorstep proudly showing off the carved pumpkins the family picked and carved the day before. 

This layout makes good use of the patterned paper left over from the previous three layouts. The base is the sheet of Fawn Bazzill. 

From the kit I used:

Cocoa Vanilla - Day Dream - Daisy Days and Sweet Serenity
Pebbles - Jen Hadfield - The Avenue - 2nd Avenue and 3rd Avenue
Vicki Boutin - Story Teller - Memoir
Pinkfresh Studio - Days of Splendor - My Favourite
Bazzill Basics Black and Fawn
mini black doily
wooden dots
Cocoa Vanilla Puffy Heart
Prima layered heart sticker

From my stash I used:
white card
Basic Grey alphabet sticker sheets
fine black pen
paper leaves

That's all for the November kit, although there is still plenty left over as usual. I'll be back with the December kit later in the month.

Autumn Leaves

Here is the third layout I have made for the Design Team using the November Papermaze Kit.The lovely soft colours in this collection are ideal for creating layouts displaying photos of russet, wind swept foliage, fallen fir cones, berries and fields of pumpkins.

This photo shows Emily during her red hair phase. She was visiting Hall Place, Bexley to do an autumn photo shoot together with a fellow A level photography student. The photo reminds me of the line about autumn leaves from the 'Windmills of your Mind' song. Although I slightly changed the words for my long title, otherwise it would have been even longer!

From the Kit I used:
Pinkfresh Studio - Days of Splendor - My Favourite
Pebbles - Jen Hadfield - The Avenue - 2nd Avenue
Cocoa Vanilla - Day Dream - Sweet Serenity
Black Bazzill
Tando Creative Mini Tags pack
6 dew drops
5 paper flowers
24" Twine

From my stash I used:
Antique Bronze Distress Paint "
Sizzix 'Vintage Lace' Sizzlit die
Gesso
Distress Oxide
Gilding flakes
Letter stickers

Once more from the November kit tomorrow.
