  • Stacey Young www.staceyeyoung.blogspot.com <<<<  You are here



  • While we are in the festive spirit I would love to share another Christmas layout with you.  This time I used the new Christmas collections from Heidi Swapp and Webster's pages Allison Kreft Designs. 

    I am not much of a scrapper with red, so I think using subtle amounts of it on Christmas layouts agrees with me!  I really like this one, even threw the darker green in there too which is also a different colour for me to use.  I used the Shimmerz Blingz colour in Winter Green to match the papers out of these collections.

    A Crate Paper bow layered with a vellum bow and flair button!
     
     
     
    

     
     
    A little gold thread!






    I used some black Shimmerz on the Transparency too, love how that turned out, I didn't do anything but apply a dribble of it with a paintbrush and it just dried this way.
