Fun Family Time Layout

One of the most important things about the holidays is spending time with your families.  I love scrapbooking the holidays of previous years, and remembering all of those great times we shared.  Today's layout is made with We R Memory Keepers North Pole I Want It All Bundle from FotoBella.com.  The bundles are fabulous and this one will not disappoint.  FotoBella bundles have a TON of paper in them, not to mention all the embellishment goodies that go along with it.  


Don't you just love these script alpha stickers?  They make such stunning titles. 


I got a lot of photos on this page using my circle stamp to crop out the backgrounds of the photos and draw the focus to our faces.  


Happy Holidays everyone!  Hope they are full of your own fun family times!

Have a fabulous day!

Dear Santa Layout

Christmas time is fast approaching and what better time to shop for yourself at FotoBella.com It is the place to find great Christmas collections like this one I'm featuring today by We R Memory Keepers.  It's the North Pole I want it all bundle and it is perfect for those holiday projects you've been waiting to start.  This collection has the classic colors and patterns.  


There are some fun snowflake stickers I couldn't wait to use in this collection.  I adhered them to the layout with foam squares to give them some dimension and coordinate with the snow flake patterned paper I used for the background of the layout.


When I saw the alpha stickers I was really excited to use them.  They are really cute!  I had a bunch of titles I wanted to use, and settled on this one (so I'd have enough letters, ha!).


Silver Stickles added some sparkle to the center of the snowflakes and ran it along the edge of the photo to frame it out with some bling!  Visit FotoBella to see this bundle for yourself.

Have a fabulous day!

Happy Holidays Layout

Happy first day of December!!  Have you seen We R Memory Keepers North Pole Collection available now at FotoBella.com?  It really is a great collection for your holiday photos.  It's the latest bundle I've been working with for FotoBella's Design Team.  It's a very festive collection with traditional Christmas colors.  



This collection also has the large tags which I used here in the center of the layout, mounted on chipboard so that it would sit higher than the photos.  I embellished a lot of the layout with Stickles, the tag and the holly berries on the patterned paper and it really made it pop.


Grab this bundle today and make your own beautiful layouts.

Have a fabulous day!
