Hello friends! Audrey Mutschall here with my first Christmas layout of the season! I’ve used Paige’s Cut and Fold Christmas Trees Background Cut File and the fabulous Sugarplum Wishes collection for this page. I love how fun and festive it turned out!
I started by cutting the background design from green star Paper 10 and then carefully folded over all of the Christmas trees. This type of cut file is so fun to use because it allows you to see the back side of the paper too! I wanted to stick with green for the trees, so I backed the open spaces with green plaid Paper 3. To finish off the background I used Mini Puffy Stickers to add little stars, bows, and birds to the tops of a few of the Christmas trees. These stickers are so adorable and they fit perfectly on the little trees - I love when that happens! With the background complete, I matted my photo with a candy cane striped paper from the 6x8 Paper Pad and then got to work embellishing around it. I added a tag from Paper 1 and a journaling card from the Ephemera Die Cuts and used a Decorative Paper Clip to hold them in place. I also used two floral clusters from the Floral & Snowflake Die Cuts, arranging them on opposite corners of the photo. I added Cardstock Stickers, an Acrylic Sweater, and embellished a little sign from the Ephemera Die Cuts with hand stitching and Enamel Dots. Lastly, I made a little bow using red and pink striped paper from one of the Boxed Cards and placed it by one of the floral clusters around my photo.
I had so much fun creating this Christmas layout and I hope it inspires you to check out Paige’s Cut and Fold Cut Files - she has lots of fun ones!!
