Hello and happy November my scrappy friends!! I am excited about today’s post and theme! We are entering fun holiday seasons here in the US! Yesterday was Halloween and soon enough it will be Christmas. I wanted to create a layout with the new Holly Berries sequin mix so I picked out these cute photos of my boys and husband decorating the Christmas tree when they were little.
This is the layout I made. I really loved this old Christmas collection from Pink Fresh Studio last year. I pulled out this piece of paper and new exactly how I wanted to continue using it on the layout.
I knew that I wanted to sprinkle the new Holly Berries sequins all around the layout to mimic the background decorations. The red pattern paper under the photos had this cute little ‘cozy & warm’ phrase in the middle of it so I cut it out and then covered the middle with the photos. I knew I wanted to use the label as an ephemera piece because our theme this month is ‘Cozy Up & Create’.
I placed the sequins to the left of the photos as well and I also added a strip of black and white patterned paper to mimic the colors of the trees from the scene below.
I had a hard time naming this layout. I wanted there to be a fun title but I couldn’t think of one. I asked my husband what he thought it should be and he came up with ‘The Trimming Tots’. I love it!
I really love the scenes that were on the papers of this collection! It was really fun incorporating the sequins onto the background!
Make sure you hop along to the rest of the teams blogs. Here’s the line up:
Love this!!! Omg what a beautiful & creative way to use this paper with the Holly Berries sequins!! 💕💕💕💕💕
