Ideas for Christmas Layouts

Mini Keepsake Album

Good morning!  Sorry for my absence...I was on a vacation with my son's family and away from papercrafting!  Until I get my creative mojo going again, I hope you will enjoy this video showing ways to embellish the Kraft Pocket Album from CTMH.

Freedom!

Here are some wonderful ideas for your layouts celebrating our Freedom...just in time for Veterans's Day!  She also shows you how to adapt "Freedom" elements to create everyday pages.  Just another way Close to My Heart makes it so easy to create beautiful layouts!

Trim the Tree!

The inspiration for these cards was the card shown on page 12 of the Holiday Gift Guide. They feature the Sparkle and Shine paper packet and the Trim the Tree stamp set.  I changed them up a little bit, using silver shimmer tape instead of the hand stitching and red bling I found in my stash.  The card on the left uses the Sparkle Holiday Shapes for the bling on the trees, while the one on the right uses more economical Glitter Gel.  It gives the same look and will be easier to mail. The "Believe" was cut on the Cricut using the Artbooking cartridge.

Enjoy!
