12 Days of Christmas--Day 8

/

Today I want to share a Christmas inspired scrapbook page with you. It uses a little bit of new, a little bit of old and a little bit of current! It is always my favorite things to do, mash up a bunch of products that I love and enjoy!

The base of this page is Real Red which is just classic Christmas and I paired it up with Crumb Cake, Early Espresso and Basic White elements for a really awesome holiday feel. The Gingerbread & Peppermint DSP from holiday 2021 was some of my favorite DSP and I still have a couple of packages to use on some projects for this holiday season.

I almost always add DSP to my scrapbook pages and often that color dictates the rest of my page design. I wanted to go with a winter Christmas feel so I added some snowflakes from the Joyful Flurry stamp set to the background in Real Red ink.

 

Top Tip: when stamping background images, mount as many of the stamps onto a large block as you can. This way you can ink up the stamp and efficiently fill in your background!

I added some of the Wonderful Snowflakes to both of my scrapbook pages. This is one of the main elements that connect these two pages to each other along with the coordinating photo mats in Early Espresso and Crumb Cake.

I used a variety of sentiments from Snowflake Flurry and Framed & Festive for my pages.

Have you been seeing sneak peeks of the Alphabet A La Mode Dies around the internet? I love love love these dies and knew that I wanted to incorporate them into my page design. The word ‘JOY’ fit perfectly on the tag from the Celebration Tags Dies.

I love these dies and have used them so many times over this holiday season! A few classic Rhinestones are the perfect bling for these pages!

The North Pole Sacks are the perfect scrapbook page accessory! I added one to my page with a little pull out that you could use to journal or tuck Christmas momento’s inside.

I really love how this page layout came out and I can’t wait to share it with my scrapbook group later this month. If you are local to YEG and are interested in scrapbooking, please let me know! I would love to share in some creativity with you in 2023.
