Petite Prints Challenge: Merry Family Layout by Monique

Hello Doodlebug fans! It's Monique on the blog today and I'm so excited to share this rainbow colored Petite Prints layout with you! I adore the new Gingham-Linen look of this collection and I think it's my new favorite Petite Prints collection ever! I also love all the colors in this "rainbow" collection and wanted to use ALL of them, so I did! Except for the "Petite Prints" collection I also used some "Here Comes Santa Claus" embellishments to complete my layout.

Here's what I created:

This layout came together so fast! For the centre of my layout I cut two red and one white circles using the Coluzzle circle cutter. Next I grabbed the 6"x 6" Gingham-Linen Petite Prints paper pad and a hand punch (yes, no digital cut files at all this time!) and punched 21 Christmas trees, one from (almost) every page:

I arranged all the trees around the centre circles and decorated them with both shiny and matted Sprinkles and added my photo and the rest of the embellishments. Never before did I finish a layout so quickly! A few die-cuts, stickers and a paper clip from the Here Comes Santa Claus collection, some machine stitching and I was done!

Thank you so much for stopping by our blog today! I cant't wait to see what you'll create with Doodlebug's Petite Prints collection! Wishing you a great day!

Monique
