Toni says:

“The colours of the Silly Season are bright and funky, just perfect for a modern Christmas. I used the Modern Tree, painted green, then stamped with a silver ink to give the feel of a Christmas Tree, then cut different shapes out of balsa wood covered with the different pattern squares of Gingerbread to make the presents. Add some ribbon and bling, and hang some ornaments, and it’s the perfect decoration for the Christmas table.”

Toni says:

“I love the heritage colours in the December 25th range. I’ve always wanted to do a Christmas Planner and this range was perfect for this project. On the fold out pages, I’ve included pockets and clips to hold all the lists that you make at Christmas time. This way I can reuse this planner year after year, and the lists I make can then be included in any scrapbooking layouts about Christmas. I can’t wait for Christmas to get closer to be able to use it for the first time!”

Toni and Ann-Katrin are here today to share some Christmas Card cheer with you using Silly Season.

“My nieces are teenagers, so this year I’m sending them gift cards. These gift card holders are the perfect way to send them, and the colours of Silly Season were perfect to decorate them with. The papers in the paper pad are a perfect size, and with a lot of them having gloss or glitter already on them, it adds that little bit of extra to the cards without the extra work!”

“I love vintage Christmas looking cards and December 25th is so perfect for that theme. I have made a ‘Z’ fold card, it’s size when folded correctly is 6 x 6 inch. Start off with a 12×6 inch piece of card. Fold in half, then fold the left 6 x6 side in half again to create a ‘Z’ when looking from above. I like the scene of Santa Clause in the sledge together with two reindeers.”

Toni says:

“Sometimes we don’t have a photo to go with a story. But that’s no reason to not remember the story by scrapbooking about it. I wanted to share my memories of Christmas’s when I was a child with my boys but I didn’t have any photos. The December 25th range is perfect for heritage Christmas layouts, or even a layout with no photo.
I painted the chipboard letters with gold, then stamped them with a holly stamp, and given them a gloss look with dimensional magic. This way, your title matches your layout perfectly.”

Thanks for looking and remember to scrap your Christmas memories.
