This is now week two of the Artfull Crafts Christmas countdown - the theme of which is albums/layouts or project life spreads. I love all the
inspiration and hope you are having some time to join in. Today I am showing you a
few Christmas layouts using various ranges.
The first was created using the bold and Geometric Simple Stories DIY Collection.
This collection has an awesome selection of papers and stickers to
chose from with a more traditional Christmas colour scheme paired with
black and dark brown to give some added pop!
The layout has been created by layering distressed and inked papers and then adding chipboard, diecuts, flowers
and stickers. The flourish is a cut up ampersand. The photo is of my
oldest son which was taken around his first real Christmas when he was
just over a year old. He was a premmie and had only been home a week
before Christmas so we stayed home that year.
My second layout is also using Simple Stories DIY Collection - just a bit more simply. I have only used some of two papers from the paper collection
- one for the photo mat and one with the circles for the flower centres
on the flowers. The base is Kraft cardstock sprinkled with mists. I
have added some of the paper diecuts and chipboard from the range as
well. Finished off with a cameo title and a little journalling. This is
the same boy in the previous layout but eight years later! He has just
turned 14 this week!
My third and final layout is using my favourite Christmas collection North Pole by Kaisercraft-
so much so that I had to buy more of it after getting my design team
kit! I first sprayed the background white cardstock with my mists. The
hexagon background was created using my cameo. I then just layered papers, collectables, photos of my 11 year old and flowers to create a less traditional Christmas layout. I love how it has turned out.
Have
a great week and enjoy the Christmas countdown - I would love to see
some layouts or albums created by you for the Christmas Countdown . Make
sure to load them here for a chance to win some prizes.
