CTMH Festive Friday Blog Hop, November 2013

Thank you for taking the time to read this post today., I am sorry for being so late getting it posted.

Today I am sharing a layout I made with our Workshops on the Go Frosted Scrpabooking Kit. I just love the soft colors and snowflakes in this paper.

I choose to use red accents in the place of the blush cardstock included with the kit because I really wanted to bring out the red of my neices and nephews clothing.

I mounted their picture on colonial white cardstock and then used our Red Shimmer Trim around the first matt for some extra shine. This trim is so easy to use as it is adhesive backed and looks great. I cut these snowflakes out of our Glitter paper and used them as a border on the edge of the picture. Then I stamped "You melt my HEART" with our Cranberry Exclusive Inks.

I stamped this sentiment onto the Frosted Grey cardstock with our White Daisy Exclusive Ink, and then embellished with our Sparkle Florishes that were included in my kit. I used the Red Base & Bling Jewels to accent the middle of the large snowflakes.

I punched these scalloped circles from the coordinating paper in the kit and then stamped each of the kids initial with our Whisper ink and then used the Slate ink to stamp the wreath around each one. I again used the Red Shimmer Trim but this time I used it as a ribbon and left part of the backing on it so that I would have some more demention on my page.

I am pleased with how it turned out and hope that you will be inspired to start thinking about your Christmas crafting. If I can be of any help, please contact me.
