Hi friend. I am taking part in the January sketch challenge this week and using the beautiful December kits. Interestingly, I used the sketch for my last layout, but they look totally different!
As I had stuck to the sketch last time, this week, I rotated it so that the vertical elements were now horizontal. I replace the chevrons with snowflakes which I had die-cut using the new and stunning dies. They cut through the cardstock like butter!
Want to create layouts like this? Our monthly kits include coordinated papers, embellishments, and supplies to bring your scrapbook pages to life.
To make the background more interesting, I created a huge tag – I adore tags as they give the opportunity to add a ribbon! I love the pretty pink pattern on the dark navy blue – it really pops!
You can see I placed a line of snowflakes going across before adding my photos. I had cut them in pink, baby blue and white – the designs are amazing and intricate. Now I did go off piste a little with my flower cluster. Who could resist those incredible die-cut flowers from the Embellishment kit?
They look amazing layered over the snowflakes. I fussy cut some leaves from the Hooray! paper in the Main Kit – I love the dark leaves against the flowers.
To balance things, I created another cluster on the opposite side and tucked in more snowflakes, flowers and those cute little cardstock flag stickers. I love those Wood Grain Puffy Stickers – so clever! They add fantastic texture to your pages.
You can watch my process on YouTube:
I hope that you will join in the challenge this week – you have plenty of time – just upload your layout to the Facebook Group by Thursday, February 2nd. You can be in with a chance to win $25 to spend in store!
