Scrapbook Circle | Dear Santa

Hi everyone!

I have a post up on the Scrapbook Circle blog today using the December We Are Made of Stories kit.

As a Scrapbook Circle Creative Team member - I was chosen to take part in the December Kit Inspired Challenge -Silver and Gold this month.  I had fun with hanging my photo and other embellishments on this page using hanging tags!  I embellished the tags with the Pink Paislee silver foil numbers and words included in the kit.  To add gold to the layout - I added a small piece of Crate Paper gold striped vellum paper and I unraveled the gold/white twine included in the kit.  I seperated the gold thread and used it as accents around my page.  If you look closely, you will see how some of the strings are natural-colored, and the center one still has gold thread.  

Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you enjoyed my layout stop by Scrapbook Circle to pick up their December We are Made of Stories Kit today!

December American Crafts Gallery *Red Cup Love

Hey everyone,
It's a new month, so I am here to share with you a new layout that I created for the American Crafts Gallery.  I used a fun mixture of Peppermint Express, their exclusive for Target Christmas collection, Cut and Paste and Crate Paper's Flea Market collection.

Red Cup Love Layout

There is just something about Starbuck's red cup that gets me every time.  I just had to photograph my first 'red cup' of the season.

I love this fun File and Fold paper from Amy Tangerine's Cut and Paste collection.  I just folded some of the flaps down and layered two different pattern papers underneath.  I also added some triangles that I cut out of woodgrain paper and then stitched it all down.  It makes such a fun background!
