Christmas Mini Album by Kristin Greenwood

Kristin Greenwood is walking us through the pages of her mini album created with our December Album Kit!

--------------------

I had so much fun creating the mini album this month!!  I want to share with you some tips on some of the techniques I used!


For the cover I layered some of the embellishments!  Did you know that if you use your heat setting tool on the pearl flourish, it will stick better?  


I wanted to be able to add some extra photos on this page, so I did a waterfall technique!



Snow globes are one of my favorite Christmas decorations, this one was a little plain....so I added some glossy accents and glitter!



Layers of embellishments and a Santa I fussy cut from the pattern paper!


A black outline makes everything pop of the busy pattern paper!


Don't forget the pop dots! 


Ribbons are a great addition to any page! I used this one on the photo mat, it is going to hide something in the background of my photo!


I love the black in this kit!  I used my black copic marker to color the Pink Paislee elements!

.

Its ok to layer your photo mats over your embellishments! 


I used a simple (nice word for plain!) embellishment sticker as a base for my busy cluster!


After I thought I was finished with this page, it just didn't look complete!  So I added some banners!


I only wanted to use the SANTA word on the black sticker, so I layered it behind my cluster!


I wanted the last page of the album to mimic the front cover!

Thanks so much for your tips on making this adorable album! I can hardly wait to make this after the holiday. If you have time could you explain how you made the roof? Thanks Kristin!
