Christmas layouts 2022

 Made these layouts quite awhile ago and I added some pictures to them this weekend.  I find when I scrap this way I get different looking layouts.  If I just designed when I had the pictures the layouts all start to look the same. The Close to My Heart paper pack is always a theme, but you can turn it into whatever you want by the pictures and accessories you add.  I always leave room for titles and/or embellishments and journal spots.  I am not really a journal type person, but at least always put the year and who the people are.

The layout above was not one my club did as this was a Craft with Heart kit that I really liked the old fashioned looking tags, so I bought it.  The paper is printed that way and you are pretty limited to what you can do as you only have the pieces to make the design they envisioned. It has another layout or two, but for right now I choose to only use this one.  Way busier than I normally do, but I really like how this one turned out. I found some rub on transfers to add 2 more little tags at the bottom.  

This layout uses the Cedar and Pines Close to My Heart paper packet.  I did design this for my club back in Feb 2020 and the only extra accents I added now was the row of presents below the journal spot. I created this from my extensive die collection.  :)  I did make the title and penguin for my club back when we did this and they were Treasure Box Designs SVG files.

Hello Darlin layouts Close to My Heart

Here are the 5 layouts o made with Close to My Heart Hello Darlin paper packet (2 of them) and the Hello Darlin coordinating cardstock.  I do also add some extra cardstock when doing the layouts. I use dies and punches I have on hand for journal spots and accents.  I always leave room for titles or extra embellishments once pictures are placed on them  This way it does not limit what the layout can be used for.
