The 12 Days of Once Upon a Christmas with Cycling Team Member Michelle St. Clair

Today we are excited to introduce new Cycling Team Member Michelle St. Clair.  She brings us a classic two page layout for ideas on preserving your holiday memories with our Once Upon a Christmas collection. But let's have Michelle tell you all about it...

"Merry Christmas" (two page layout)
 

The clear cut hanging ornaments are pop dotted for dimension.  I addded silver Stickles to the ornaments too.

My friend Audrey Pettit (past LYB Cycling Teamer) taught me how to 'tie' the bows and attach.  I used to do it the hard way. I used to try and tie the bow around the ornament top.  She taught me to 'fake' it by tying the boy and adhering to the front of the ornament with a Glue Dot.  Thank goodness for friends....

Once Upon a Christmas Products:
-Mistletoe Stripe pattern paper (green)
-Merry Christmas Damask pattern paper
-Snowflake Plain pattern paper (beige hounds tooth)
-Chipboard shapes with foil accents
-Clear Cuts with foil accents

"Merry Christmas" (one-page layout)

And then I was able to whip out this layout...I hadn't scrapped these photos from 2007 and the colors in this collection just seemed perfect.  I added red Stickles to the berries.  Using the Vintage Bands pattern paper made this layout simple to create because it included a built in title.
