Hello friends! Yesterday I sat smugly in my studio sipping coffee and browsing blogs, reveling in the fact that MY CHRISTMAS SHOPPING WAS DONE! This is a feat that has never happened prior to December 24, and I was darn proud of my procrastinator self. That was, until I opened my email to discover that three of my orders placed weeks ago were being canceled due to lack of inventory and all warm and fuzzy feelings were quickly replaced with Grinch-worthy grouchiness. Sigh.
So while I drown my shopping sorrows in an egg nog latte, I thought I'd hop on and share another layout from the winter SCT Delivered Kit. Because colorful pages of Christmases past are sure to boost my spirits, right?!
S U P P L I E S :
SCT Delivered Winter 2020 Kit | Bazzill Phoenix | Bazzill White | Striped Paper | Green Snow Scene Paper
Pink Cherry Paper | Red Grid Paper | Ephemera | Red Thickers | Kit Exclusive Stamps & Tags
Twine | Enamel Dots | Scallop Border | Foam Adhesive
The bright colors of the Bella Blvd Fa La La collection definitely inspired this page - I love adding a touch of pink to holiday pages! I created a border on the left with the striped paper and added lots of the coordinating ephemera atop the paper.
I used enamel dots and some of the smaller stamps from the kit exclusive set in between the ephemera pieces. Smaller stamps are perfect for filling in areas of trapped white space and can work just like small embellishments!
For the title, I used the kit stamps again for the word "Christmas" and stacked it above the red foil Thickers. A few more pieces from the ephemera pack and some small star stamps complete the title.
To try and counter my bah-humbugs today, I'm sharing another giveaway that will hopefully brighten one of your holiday seasons! Today's package is a set of papers, cardstock, stamps & banners from the Close to My Heart Jingle Joy collection! It's perfect for December Daily projects, holiday cards or gift tags! If you'd like to be entered to win this set, just leave me a comment today and tell me....are you done with your holiday shopping?? (US addresses only, please!) I'll announce the winner here on Friday!
And now I'm off to scour the stores (masked up and with plenty of hand sanitizer in my bag!) in hopes of finding those missing items to complete my Christmas shopping - wish me luck!
