More Holiday Traditions with Lisa and Anna

Design team member Lisa Kisch created this festive layout to celebrate her daughters' visit with Santa.  Here's what Lisa had to say ... ""One of my favourite traditions at Christmas is taking the girls to see Santa. It's always a little dicey - I never know how they are going to react to the Big Guy. This year went pretty smoothly and we got a cute picture to boot! In terms of the design of this layout, I was pleasantly surprised at how well "Cats and Dogs" lends itself to the holidays. I used both patterned papers and letter stickers from that line for this project. I even used the red heart-shaped kitty tag to add my date. Then there are the red glitter candy dots - they practically scream Christmas! I mounted them on paper snowflakes and circle punches of generic red metallic wrapping paper. Have a look in your non-holiday stash to find supplies that are perfect for holiday scrapping - you might be surprised what you find!"

Design team member Anna Sigga used non-traditional holiday colors on her layout.  Here's what Anna had to say ... "Every year we go to my older daughters Kindergarten/Day-care and decorate gingerbread cookies along with all the other kids and parents. This is such a fun time and it always brings out the Christmas spirit in me and my girl. I decided to use the Twitterpated collection because it was just a perfect fit with all the colors in the photos - so it is OK to crate a layout about the holidays without using the traditional themed papers."
