A Christmas Classic 2014

Scrapbook Layout created for Simple Stories  - A Christmas Classic 2014 -

Hello there!

Nathalie with you today to bring you some inspiration for the upcoming Christmas season!   This time, I wanted to document a "classic" Santa portrait using the gorgeous "Very Merry" Collection.

The wreath that frames the background was created from a Silhouette design, and backed with papers from the Very Merry collection.  All those classic designs, and rich colors create the perfect background for the picture.

To bring the picture forward in the design, embellishments from the collection were layered in clusters around the wreath, and in clusters around the picture.

The title of this page tells the story of the layout  (this is one of my favorite pictures of my littles - a true "classic"-), and was formed using pieces from the Very Merry collection (chipboard, cardstock and clear stickers) as well as some sn@p Color Vibe Bold alphas.

The color combo, and beautiful designs are perfect to document all your Christmas memories.  Don't forget to check the Very Merry collection - you will love  it!

Have a blessed Christmas!!!

Merry Selfie

Scrapbook Layout created for Maya Road  - MERRY SELFIE  -

Hello Roadies!
 Nathalie here with a bit of Christmas inspiration using the beautiful Maya Road products.  I am sure by now you all are almost ready to get together with your families, and record all those sweet moments, but always remember to include yourself in the picture!   Today, I want to show you how i documented my latest selfie.
  

To create this layout, a simple triangle was drawn on white cardstock -to recreate the Christmas tree-;  then a few shades of green watercolor were added to give it some color and dimension.   While the background dried, all the snowflakes from the Snowflake Mini Chipboard set were gold foiled.
 

Once the background was dried, all the snowflakes were then glued inside the watercolor tree.  A  White Pretty Resin bow was added to the top of the tree to add texture, and mark the tree topper snowflake.



This layout was created, and embellished using Simple Stories's "Very Merry" collection.    The colors in the collection match perfectly that of the ones in the picture.   



There are small clusters of ephemera and embellishments cluster around the layout.   On the top corner of the picture, a Wood Snapshot token,  a small heart from the Ken Oliver Lock My Heart Charm set, and a few pieces from the paper collection create a little cluster that bring attention to the picture.


The title for this page was created using one of the Very Merry chipboard stickers, and the Just My Type Clear Stamp set.   A few more embellishments and a few drops of gold ink complete the page.
 

I hope this inspire you to mix some of the beautiful Maya Road products with some of your favorite paper collections to document a picture of you!  Just look at how easily you can bring your picture to life.  Stop by the Maya Road store to check all the products used in this project.


Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions on how this came together.

Have a Blessed Christmas, and may 2018 be filled with love and peace!
