With Christmas just over a week away I thought I'd better get last year's holiday photos scrapbooked. For some reason, they are my least favourite layouts to do and I (obviously) procrastinate when it comes to getting them done. I thought the Holidazzle Paper and Photo Mat pack and embellishments from Creative Memories might help inspire me and they did make for a cute 2-page spread.
I cut my title using the Christmas Cricut cartridge and I cut the year 2011 using the Designer Calendar cartridge - I happened to get both in a bundle with my Cricut rewards points. I added several photo mats and I'll sprinkle in some shape-cut photos around the full-size photos. I popped up some ornament embellishments and added 
a bit of Dazzling Diamonds glitter to a few spots. The last thing I did was use a small hole punch on the top of the ornaments so I could add a tiny piece of wire...that idea was stolen from my friend Diane who used the technique on her Christmas cards this year. Very cute!
