Merry Christmas Pick & Play


Today's scrapbooking spread came from a challenge on the Paper Wishers message board. It actually combined several challenges.  :)

Materials/Method:
  • Handmade paper purchased from Costco years ago (black with gold dots)
  • Christmas Wonder paper pack (HOTP - one double-sided sheet for borders/blocks, and part of another for journaling)
  • Christmas Wonder Foiled Fancies (HOTP - Merry Christmas & 3 ornaments)
  • Gold Poster Board (for "2019") and black card stock (for matting and "Family")
  • Cutting dies (numbers from a set my Mother has, Family from a set I got from Ali Express)
  • Black glitter ribbon (for upper border)
  • Black Enamel Accents (to paint "Family" so it was more glossy)
  • Adhesive backed Rhinestones (colored black and used as "fasteners" for ornaments & scattered around the page)
  • Scalloped Tearing Ruler (to tear sheet of double-sided paper into borders & blocks)
  • Black Sharpie (for coloring black in center of gold letters & for coloring rhinestones)
