Season's Greetings

Good morning all, I would like to share a Christmas layout with you this morning!! 

I started my background paper using the new Toyland Bear #674 stamp set that was just released. 

Using the pine stamp to create the background in the corners and along the side of the page.  They were stamped with green ink and small dots of dimensional glue was added to the berries and glittered using Fire Engine Red glitter.

The ornament was punch from sticker paper and glittered using the Lacey Glitter Background technique.  You can find a tutorial HERE on how to create this look.

To create the strips of paper I used the snowflake stamp from Snow One Like Me and the Crystal Medallion.  They were stamped with versamark and embossed using White EP.

To create the strips I used 1/8" and 1/4" Tear-ific Tape with Elegant Emerald and Silver Dreams glitter.

The Season's Greetings was die cut using Die-Versions Season's Greeting Script die.  I used brushable glue and Elegant Emerald glitter to add sparkle.

You can find complete details on this layout HERE on my SNS gallery!

Have a great day see you soon!

I used the cute Toyland Bear set to create a tag for my layout.  

To create the tag I stamped the image with Teddy Brown EP and colored with copic markers.  A second image was stamped and the bear only was colored with copic markers and fussy cut out.  The bear was placed on top of the first image using pop dot.

The tag was cut using my Cameo and a white gel was used to create the stitch lines.  For all that pretty sparkle I used  Sparkling Snow, Fire Engine Red and Spirited Green glitter and a glue pen. The snowflake was punched using Sizzix's Snowflake die and glittered using Sparkling Snow.  Mon Ami Gabby Embellishment was used in the center.

I used a strip of white CS and strips of  1/8", 1/4" and 1/2" Tear-ific Tape to create the sparkly stripes.  Place the tape on top of the CS, remove the backing one strip at a time and apply glitter to each strip.  For the strip I used Lady Luck, Silver Dreams and Fire Engine Red.  I also used 1/2" Tear-ific Tape to create the bow. You can find a tutorial HERE on how to create one.

The title was stamped with versamark and embossed with White EP.  

A few snowflakes were punched and glittered using Sparkling Snow glitter.
