#tistheseason
By Charmane Sharp





Well it's almost that time of year again. Christmas layouts always 
bring forward wonderful memories created with those we love.

I have mixed some Christmas designs with other pieces of 2Crafty
Chipboard blending them amongst my pieces I fussy cut from
Mintay papers.



2Crafty Chipboard used...

Frame Scallop Circle Borders
Corner Sweet Holly
Maggie's Swirls
Christmas #word set 1

 


Using one of the Scalloped Frames to circle my photo adds a touch
of elegance by rubbing some Gold wax on it in a shabby chic style.




Off setting the frame is the lovely Corner Holly that I watercoloured
with wax crayons. Finished with a little gold wax. Underneath it I
placed one of Maggie's Swirls that I watercoloured with wax crayons
and then added two shades of red Distress Glaze in small amounts.
I think they work together beautifully.




By placing the smaller Scalloped Frame under the cut out wreath,
it enhances it visually.




Perfect title for my layout chosen from the # set which I rubbed gold wax
 on and then dabbed a little Gesso over. Wishing you all enjoyment through
this festive season. 

Until next time...
