Come look at the new Christmas line from Doodlebug!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Even though I did a Christmas reveal a couple of months ago, I still had lots of last year’s Christmas photos that I needed to scrap.  I have always loved the company Doodlebug<\/a>.  So when I seen the new lines with the glitter covered cardstock stickers and papers I knew that I had to have them.  I picked out the new Christmas line called Merry & Bright<\/a>.  It features the tradional Christmas colors of red, green and white but with wonderful glitter added to everything! <\/p>\n

Materials Used: <\/strong>(see below for links to individual products)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Santa I Can Explain:  <\/strong>I love these pictures of my son, Erik with Santa and I thought the cute Doodlebug papers were perfect for them.  I also used some of the new Crushed Velvet Brads<\/a> and Doodlebug’s Sugar Coated Brads<\/a> to add to my paper borders.  I mixed and layered some of the new Merry & Bright glitter present stickers<\/a> with some of my older Doodlebug present stickers then placed them at Santa’s feet.<\/p>\n

You Are My Christmas Joy:  <\/strong>My kids really are my joy but they can be my pain too.  Just kidding.  Taking pictures in their Santa hats every year has become a tradition at our house.  I had quite a few pictures that I wanted to use on this layout so I decided to make a two page layout.  I used strips of paper to allow my layout to flow on both pages.  This was also a way for me to stretch my papers so I would be able to scrap more layouts.  I used several of the Suger Coated border stickers<\/a> to cover up my paper seams and again I used the Velvet Crushed brads<\/a> on this layout too.  At the bottom I first started with a stitched rub-on then added gum drop stickers<\/a> to it.<\/p>\n

Sweet As Candy:  <\/strong>Yes I do think this photo of my kids is "sweet as candy".  There wasn’t a lot of room on my page after using an 8×12 photo so I layered a couple strips of the Doodlebug papers and then added two of the glitter border stickers<\/a>.  On the stocking stickers<\/a> I outlined them lightly with a ZIG pen so they would stand out from the background paper, added 3 crushed velvet heart brads<\/a> to the bottom corner of my photo, several crushed velvet brads<\/a> lined up on the bottom of my layout and then just a couple of glitter heart stickers<\/a> on my title letters.  This was a fast and fun layout to do but most of all I love how it turned out.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ha Ha Ha Santa:  <\/strong>For this layout I used a piece of the Ladybug Crushed Velvet Cardstock<\/a>  and the Limeade Filagree Accent Paper<\/a> with the Merry & Bright papers<\/a>.  All of the Ladybug and Limeade Doodlebug papers and cardstocks work perfect with the Merry & Bright line. <\/p>\n

Cards:  <\/strong>Here are two cards that I created using some of my leftover Doodlebug Merry & Bright <\/a>scraps.<\/p>\n
