Baby it's cold outside! Winter is upon us here
in Colorado. This week (as I am writing) we are
dealing with some of the coldest winter days
that we have experienced this year. Along
with our extremely cold weather, we have some
beautiful snow falling! It’s been rather
difficult for my children, as they watch this
shiny new “white stuff” falling from the sky and
having to stay indoors due to the below freezing
temperatures. My mom “voice” is telling me to
prepare them as the cold season is just
beginning and they will soon have many indoor
days.
So as we are approaching the cold season and the
kids are indoors more, which also means that we
are indoors more. What are we going to do
with all of our extra inside time? Well scrap
of course! What better way to shake off
those “winter blues” than to pull out those fun
embellishments that sparkle & shine! That’s
right, I am talking about your bling, glitter,
jewels, and Stickles.

Design note: This
layout is adapted from a Becky Higgins
sketch. I decided to dig out some old
supplies and used shaped buttons on top of
rub-ons to add dimension to the design. I
also used Stickles to the paper elements to
give the design extra character!

Design note:
When I think of a snowy day, I think of the
shimmer on the newly-fallen snow. Glitter
papers and embellishments that sparkle add
that feeling of fun and excitement:
sledding, snow, shine, coldness, with a hint
of warmth. Whether it is glitter chipboard,
die cuts, or even just additional bling , it
brings the whole piece around to create a
feeling of a snowy day. I love the
introduction of all of the glitter papers
into
scrapbooking; there is nothing better to me
than that "ooh la la" look! |

Design note:
I wanted this layout to just focus on the
photo of my daughter, so I kept it pretty
simple. I dry brushed some acrylic
paint on the edge of the patterned paper
just to add the effect of snow...the Pearls
add
just enough embellishment to the layout and
touch of pink to enhance the acrylic
snowflakes. They helped dress up an
otherwise very simple layout.
