A very merry Christmas to all of you! Today I wanted to share a scrapbook page of my sweet daughters that make the holiday season worth every sweet moment! Webster's Pages Sweet Season papers were a perfect match this time of year, but a lot of this Sweet Season 12x12 Paper Pack can be tweaked for any time of the year, as I've done here today!
I used the beautiful round scalloped sheet of roses & "Christmas" tree paper from this pack, cut it up and used it in two different spots on top of the dress form paper. It's covering a few candy canes at the top of the page and I used the rest of it to frame the photo with more roses! The purple of the "Christmas" tree now blends in and works well to compliment the purple boa my oldest daughter is wearing.
A Cosmo Cricket Buck Naked Alpha Buttons, letter "S" was covered with a smaller scale pink print from Webster's Petite Paper Pad-Waiting For Santa & Sweet Season. Basic Grey's Precision File Set makes it easy to sand and file the edges of any type of chipboard, especially this curvy letter S! I've had my set of files for about 5 years and it's still holding up very well -- most of the tools are metal and should last you through a lifetime of papercrafting! The chipboard S was tied with some beautiful green velvet ribbon from Webster's Sweet Season & Waiting For Santa Trim Collection. The letter is popped up on top of one of Ellen's fabulous white Small Doilies -- this pack contains some great sizes that are perfect for small accents on scrap pages or cards! The rest of my page title was created with the bright pink stickers that are included with this paper pack -- makes for quick & easy scrapping!
I used Tonic's Retractable Craft Knife to cut around part of the dress form, so I could slip the photo underneath it and help frame the photo. The photo was framed with the "candy striped" paper from this pack -- love all the bright colors!
The butterfly is another sticker included in this paper pack -- I adhered it to green cardstock and trimmed around it, then popped it up on foam tape. The lower right corner contains a Sweet Season Journaling Card, where I noted my girls ages and date the photo was taken. Journaling was done with Copic's Multiliner-Black .05 -- it's a great permanent acid-free pen that won't fade and will last ages!
Wishing all of you a very sweet holiday! We'll back in the Classroom on Sunday, December 26 to begin the 12 Days of Christmas! ~ Sharon
