Merry Christmas - Heather Woodall

 Good morning

Well, I've gone and started my Christmas projects, and I couldn't resist scrapping this super cute Christmas photo.

I've used The Christmas Time range from Art Alchemy as my base starting point. I've kept the papers pretty simple so that the photo and the chipboard are the main focus. I've just added a little bit of fussy cutting in the bottom right corner. and finished that corner off with some glitter, I mean, who wouldn't, it's a Christmas project.

I've then done some gold foiling on the Christmas baubles. I've done it so that it's not completely set so that it looks old and some of the natural chipboard is showing through.

The rest of the chipboard I have coloured with my Prisma Colour Pencils, and some parts I've added Glossy Accents or Kindy Glitz to, to add some shine. I've just then glued them to my page laying it out to look like a full wreath with hanging baubles from the top of my page. I have attached them using clear drying glue.

Below are all of the chipboard pieces that I've used and they can all be found on the Dusty Attic webiste - Dusty Attic – Australian owned and operated Laser Cutting business – Dusty Attic is an Australian owned and operated Laser Cutting business, which designs and manufactures craft items and embellishments.

Merry Christmas - Rikki G

Good morning and Merry Christmas, I would like to take the opportunity to wish you all an amazing holiday.

I am here today with a very sparkly Christmas inspired layout. 

If you havent figured out yet I love fussy cutting, I mean its beyond a love.... an obsession? I love when you can cut papers up and really layer them throughout all your chipboard pieces, adding loads of layers and then all your finishing pieces like stones, glitters, foil.

To start off this layout I used the Large Holly Wreath and gave it a little spray paint. Then cut it so I could make it sit over the top part of the page - I would have cut out approx. 1/4 out of the wreath.

Stuck my photo down and then foam mounted the wreath and positioned it where I needed to go.

The next is to spray paint the additional Christmas Berries Chipboard. While your waiting on the chipboard to dry arrange all you fussy cut papers around, under and over the Large Holly Wreath....

Once you are happy with the arrangement - trust me I did fussy around a little bit with this, its all about adding your glitters/ foils and stones throughout the layers and your papers clustering and blending out these. 

Add the Christmas Berries throughout the Large Holly Wreath.

Dont forget to add glitters in varying sizes, make up your own blends and bag the extra for later on.

Spray paint your Merry Christmas Chipboard title and add to the bottom right hand corner.

Now the very necessary step and it can take a little bit of time but I am happy with the result. I covered all the chipboard pieces with Diamond Stickles.
