Merry Christmas Layout by Kelly Daye


Monday, December 26, 2022

Hello friends, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Kelly Daye here sharing a layout using Paige’s latest collection, Garden Shoppe, and the Presents from the 25 Christmas Cut Files 2020.

I cut the Presents out of white cardstock and used Garden Shoppe Paper 24Paper 9, and Paper 21 to back all the gifts for a super colorful tree. Leaving three gifts empty, I filled them with my photos. It’s all popped up with 3D foam tape over a shadow made from the Floral Transparency. It’s quite thick acetate, so using a Deep Cut Blade in my Cameo 3, I made a score line that I cut out with scissors. Do some test cuts to see what works best on your machine. Two more photos were popped up onto little polaroid frames from a paper in the 6x8 Paper Pad. The tiny phrases on them were also from a paper in the pad. My background is white cardstock cut to 11.25” square.  All the stars in the background were first drawn with my Cameo 3, then stitched with DMC Floss. I just reused the star in the cut file. Watch THIS video to learn how. Once stitched, I centered the starry background over Paper 9. I love how all the colors are also in the gifts! Using the colorful Thickers in the collection, I adhered ‘Merry Christmas’ to a simple banner made of clear acetate so it could float over the cut file. I also cut it on my Cameo 3 and you’ll see that in my video too.

Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope this layout inspires you to check out the Presents from the 25 Christmas Cut Files 2020 and use non-Christmas collections on your pages such as Garden Shoppe! I can't wait for Paige's official Christmas collection next year :)
