December Daily... in the beginning!

Apologies for not updating my blog sooner, the month of December is a busy one for most, and I have found myself buried under presents, cards and Christmas parathinalia!

I decided to participate in December Daily and capture the Christmas spirit. 

I chose to use Elle's Studio "Good Cheer" papers and cut apart sheets. I teamed this with the Freckled Fawn Christmas embellishment kit, along with a few additional items such as enamel dots, wood veneers and sequins. 

Here is my December Daily stash...

 
 
 
I also used my Silhouette Portrait to make some coordinating labels and die cuts for my layouts.


Here is my first layout...



Please leave a comment if you have any questions regarding this layout or any others featured in my blog.

Much love,

Dear Lizzy - Serendipity past page...

As always, new stash equals new layout.

I started by cutting up my 3 cut-a-part papers, and chose a couple of pieces to use within the layout. I also chose a couple of papers from the 6x6 paper pad. Using some off cuts from the paper pad, I made a couple of homemade flairs using a Technique Tuesday stamp set with Black Stazon Ink (I forgot to take a picture of these, but you should be able to see them on my layout!).

I went round and added ephemera and a few cut-a-part pieces to each section of the layout, and then went about piecing each card together.

I finished each card with a selection of coordinating enamel dots, wood veneers and titles using my favourite Tim Holtz Tiny Type Alphastickers.

Hope you like the finished layout!
