Scrapbooking Global September Blog Hop- Celebrate!

 

Hello Everyone!  Welcome to our Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop for September!  

This month's theme is "Celebrate" - now this can be taken in many, many different directions.....however, I chose to Celebrate Christmas! 

And...since I just purchased a fabulous new scrapbook album that holds a whopping 80    8 1/2 x 11 pages I decided to make the first layout for that album!  

 Here is my layout: 

I started with an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of Whisper White thick cardstock.  

Next I die cut a sheet of Real Red cardstock with the Sweetest Time border dies.  I also cut an extra candy and candy cane.  

The rest of the sheet was used to create the photo mats:

1@ 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 

2 @ 3 1/4 x 3 1/4

The designer series paper was cut just 1/4 inch smaller and I opted for one of the smaller ones to be used as a journaling card.  

The greeting was cut from Garden Green cardstock with the Playful Alphabet dies. 

The ornaments and journal greeting were from the Christmas Gleaming Bundle. 

Here is a close up of the ornaments that are popped up on the layout:

And here is a close up of the journal greeting that is also cut out and popped up for some added dimension: 

And one last look.....

Thanks for stopping by!  Enjoy the rest of the hop!
