Hello!  Today I have another one of our projects from my club meeting on Tuesday.  It showcases three of my favorite items from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Mini Catalog – the Simply Scored Scoring Tool, Stitched Stockings Stamp Set, and Stocking Builder Punch.  It also features one of my favorite current trends in papercrafting – rosettes (or medallions or lollies)!

I stamped first on this page with the snowflake and postmark stamps from Winter Post (love it!) with my Chocolate Chip Classic Stampin’ Pad.  Craft ink (also known as pigment ink) is recommended for scrapbook pages, but since none of my pictures would actually be touching the places where I stamped, I went ahead and used Classic ink.  I wanted to draw the eye diagonally from the upper left hand corner down to the bottom right hand corner (leading the eye over all the photos) so I stamped the snowflakes randomly in that direction.  I included a mat for my largest photo to make it the focus of the page, as well as a mat to highlight 3 smaller photos (or journaling) in the lower right hand corner.

The ribbon is adhered with Sticky Strip, which I use whenever I pleat ribbon or make 3D items.  The larger scallop circle from the Scallop Circle #2 die was die cut from Cherry Cobbler Card Stock, then layered with a rosette made out of the Letters to Santa Designer Series Paper (DSP), and of course the stocking from Stitched Stockings and the “merry” greeting from Tiny Tags.  See the closeup photo below for more detail, as well as the complete supply list below:

I hope you enjoyed the project today!  Make sure to visit my online store and order any items you need to preserve your treasured Christmas memories for generations to come!!!
