Scrapaholics Unite Session 7 Class 10

Yes this is more Christmas paper, but I'm not using it as that. I will be putting my son's soccer pictures on this layout. I also stamped the title using an alphabet stamp so that it could change in case each person wants to change the theme of the layout. If you would like to change it to a Christmas themed layout, you can switch the black patterned paper over to the Christmas word art paper from Silver and Gold. 

To made my own gold stars using some gold foil paper, a punch and a star thin cut. I did Cricut cut the black and red stars. I also accented with star gems and gold shimmer tape.

Another blast from the past, this is the Pear and Partridge paper, I combined it with the new Bearly Christmas paper, which is the green patterned on the bottom. An alternative layout is to use the Bearly Christmas paper with the back side of the Pear and Partridge as that is also a green with a mild pattern. Each person is able to choose a Picture My Life card to go on the right page, I chose a beautiful triangle tree as I am hoping to put pictures of our pear tree with a partridge sitting in it on this page once we get our Christmas decorations out. Alternatively, you can stamp the Santa in the middle of the extra piece of cardstock and use that piece as the PML card. The title was cut using the Artbooking Cricut cartridge and I popped up my Santa using 3D foam tape after fussy cutting. I completed the layout with a cute kraft bow and a coloured paper clip.

I had a couple of requests to do a travel page and since my sister and I went to Paris in May, I had to scrapbook some of those pictures. These are all 4x6 photos but amazingly there are 6 on this page and there is still lots of room. I used two old paper packs, but because they are solid colour patterns they work well together. I also used the zipstrip from one paper pack as it used both the sorbet and the outdoor denim to tie it all in. I pulled the light brown (champagne colour) from the background of the sorbet print. I also used my Paris pictures so that I could take advantage of the fleur de lis pattern on the Outdoor Denim patterned. I finished it off with some Cricut cuts and a cool title. Alternatively, you could add some smaller pictures in place of the journaling spot.
