It Feels Like Winter

This polar vortex is for the birds.  I love fall and feel like I am missing out.  I spent most of the summer way too hot, but this cold come too quickly. 

One good side effect is that I felt like scrapping a winter based layout.  I used the new holiday collections from Webster's Pages to make this layout:

 

It is a bit of a different color scheme for winter, but I wanted to match my son's snowsuit.  I used the touch of black to coordinate with him.  These papers are from the All that Glitters and Gingerbread Village collections.  I used the typography that matched my theme.

I used the buttons to resemble snowballs.  I love the movement.

 

I also cut the Joy out from one of the papers.  Joy in this case means joy about the snow and winter.  Nathan adores being outside in the winter.  Leave me in the house with some coffee and slippers and I am good!

 

 

Since I missed Oct.

I might as well move right to Christmas?  No really, can you believe all the decorations that are out right now?  The fall is flying by and winter will be here soon.  I decided to roll with it and make a Christmas themed page using the new All that Glitters and GingerBread Village collections from Webster's Pages.

The collections are so pretty.  I love the vintage feel of All That Glitters and the more cutesy feel of GingerBread Village.

 

Look at those reindeer....they are so cute!  I layered touches of gold throughout this layout.  I used some older Webster's goodies like the ribbon and the star.  The embellishments never go out of style!

 

 

I used the beautiful metal frames, placing a sticker underneath.  I hand cut the 25 from one of the sheets of paper.

 

 

I decided to go with the idea of shining and use the rays.  They have those pretty stars on them.  The collections are just so pretty!

 

It may have just gotten me in the mood for Christmas!
