Ho ho ho! Another Christmassy Share...

Don't you just love it when you get excited about a collection of papers? I do! I have really loved scrapping with this gorgeous collection of paper and stickers from Kaisercraft. The line's called "Merry Medley" and it's available from Scrapbookit which you can check out here. This is my third layout that I've done using this collection and I've used up almost every single scrap! Here it is...


I've made this layout using the latest colour palette at The Colour Room (#88) which, coincidentally, is actually the exact colours of "Merry Medley!" These colours are "so hot right now!" ;)

I've also used the sketch provided at TCR too. I've used just the one photo instead of the two - and replaced the space for the other photo with a matching sized piece of patterned paper. I've also mixed up the trees a bit to suit my layout, and I've also added a few bits and pieces to make it my own. :)


Because I was literally down to scraps for this layout - I found that I had to become more inventive - I'm really pleased with my Christmas trees; I made some templates with scrap paper by freehand drawing triangles, then I cut some strippy bits (alot were already strips!) and glued them horizontally across the "trees", then snipping them down to size once turned over (to see the template).

I put little "x's" on the top of two of my trees as stars - but they are really "Christmas Kisses" ;)...


I've one more Chrissy page using this collection to put up on my blog (a DT page). It'll be up very soon!

TFL! :)

  6. So glad you entered this at The Color Room cos I was thinking that the colours were so perfect! I love your trees made from scrap - such a great idea & they look really good too. I actually might pinch this idea (with a link to you of course) as I need a quick idea for a crop challenge at 3 Scrappy Boys - if I go with it I'll let you know :)

  7. Might have to pinch your very easy tree idea ~ this is simple but really effective. These colours are really, really great ~ & they'd be versatile for other than xmas stuff, too. I think this is one of your 'besties' ~ it's a fantastic LO:):)
