Winter Farmhouse Sparkle!
Hi, it’s Cara [1] here today! I hope you are having a wonderful, festive December so far. I recently went to London and the Christmas decorations were incredible! I've never seen anything like it, I was amazed by the attention to detail and a surprise was waiting for me around every corner. I wanted my layout to showcase how beautiful it all was. The Winter Farmhouse collection [2] not only matched my favourite London photos, but really highlighted them and made my photos stand out. I chose festive papers with a Christmas feel and I love how it all turned out.
With so many lovely papers to choose from, I decided to go with lots of layers so that I could use as many of them as possible. I used the golden floral paper aptly named Warm and Cosy [3] as my main background because it drew out the gold tones of the lights and decorations in my photos. I love having a peek of pattern at the edges of my pages, so I trimmed down the yellow paper to let a bit of the dark Falling Snow [4] paper show on two sides.
Hello Winter [5] and the backside of the 4x6 elements [6] paper matted my photos and I used both sides of Feeling Frosty [7] for the backdrop for the title.
Little label die cuts from the Journal Bits and Pieces [8] were the perfect spots to add the locations of each photo and a larger label was the perfect size for my journaling.
I sprinkled a mix of stickers [9], die cuts [10], and cardstock stickers [11] around the page as embellishments and then I topped the whole thing off with some gems and glitter.
Have you scrapbooked the Christmas lights in your town yet? What other festive decorations have you scrapped?
