I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut the Christmas sentiments from gold foil paper. Once I had my sentiments adhered properly, I hand-painted Christmas fl owers and accented with a gold paint pen.

When it comes to trend watching, one of my favorite places to look is the clothing racks. Its a great place to see the next hot color combo, icon, or style. Lately, Ive been struck by the amount of dip dye on t-shirts, dresses, and skirts. I came up with a fun way to re-create the dip dye look using water and reinker. The result? A dip dye inspired tag!

Although holiday-themed products are fun, I often like to give a festive spin to my all-occasion papers. I searched my stash and used the Burlap & Bouquets collection from Fancy Pants Designs to create a bright and cozy holiday card. When pulling from my stash, I look for basic patterns like polka dots, stripes, and fl owers in holiday colors. Dont be afraid to try a less traditional palette with bright pinks and various shades of green.

Its time to revive an oldie-but-goodie technique: marbling paper with shaving cream and reinkers. Marbling has been showing up again in home dcor and fi ne stationery, and with the holiday card-making season upon us, this is a classy and elegant look for your cards. This is also a great project to do with your children.

EEllff MMiinnii AAllbbuumm DeDesigner: Kim KeKeststii

There are plenty of great paper crafting products out there, and after scrapping for over ten years it takes something really special to spark my interest. Simple Stories did it this time around with their innovative Photo Flips. They are so easy to install just remove the adhesive backing and add the Photo Flip right on top of your pocket page! These little guys are the perfect addition to my December mini album; I work with a 6" X 8" album, so having the ability to add extra photos and memorabilia is like icing on the cake. Or, should I say "the frosting on my sugar cookie?"
