Yuletide Carol Santa Photo layout


I just love the traditional Christmas colours in this Santa Photo layout. (Even though my daughter is in pink! What was I thinking?)
You could follow on with this theme for your Christmas photos in your album too. Just choose layouts to suit your photos from our Reflections book and use these same cardstock colours.
Start with a sheet of Black Cardstock. Cut your other cardstock colours as follows:
Ruby 8x10" and a 1/2 x 12" strip
Yuletide Carol Print 3&1/2 x 10&1/2"
New England Ivy 2&1/2 x 12"
Kraft 6 x 8"
Tag- Colonial White
Pinwheel- Yuletide Carol 2&1/2" square
Distress the edges of the coloured pieces. 
Attach the large Ruby piece 1" in from the left border and 1" in from the bottom border.
Attach the Yuletide piece 1&3/4" in from the left border and flush with the bottom border.
Attach the NE Ivy Piece 1&1/2" up from the bottom border.
Attach the 1/2" Ruby strip along the top of the NE Ivy.
Attach the Kraft piece 2" up from the bottom and 2&1/4" in from the left border.
Now attach your 5x7 Santa photo!
Use the square of printed Yuletide To make a pinwheel. Cut all corners half way
in from the point to the centre of the square. Stick a Glue Dot in the center and fold one side of each point into the middle. Stick a clear sparkle that has been coloured with our ShinHan markers in the middle. I have used markers in Carmine,Sap Green and Marigold on the clear sparkles on this page.
Next you need a tag. You can use your Cricut or hand cut one or use an old tag maker like I did. I stamped Merry Sweet Christmas from the Candyland Holiday Stamp Set (D1557) which is only $10 this month with your $75 order. Usually $27! I used Ruby Ink and also daubed the edges of the tag. I used a scrap of twine but you could also use our Bakers Twine Z1921. Attach it with 3D Foam tape Z1151 to make it pop! Add extra coloured sparkles to your liking.
