The Design Team will be showcasing the gorgeous December Days collection, along the Hop! We recently had SNOW in southern Alabama...yes, real live snow! I couldn't wait to document one of the photos, and I knew the December Days collection would work great with it!
The Christmas Magic patterned paper is great for giving you a head start on your layout! I love that it already has the "Christmas Magic" sentiment and cute ornament printed on the paper. I placed my photo near the ornament and under the words, which helped me with the placement of all of the other elements on the layout.
I kept everything else on the layout in a diagonal design. Since I love to use cut files on my layouts, I cut some snowflakes to embellish the layout. I used one of the papers from the 6x6 paper pad for the larger snowflake and some White card stock for the smaller ones. I layered the large snowflake under my photo and scattered the smaller ones throughout the rest of the design.
I combined the Chipboard Alpha Stickers, Foiled Woodgrain Sticker and a die cut word for the title. I love to mix different alphas and textures to add interest to my titles. I finished the layout with a few ephemera pieces, wood buttons and puffy stickers!
