Scrapbook Circle....circles!!

First, I need to announce the winner of the Scrapbook Circle Kit that was chosen from my blog.
Anelsie
from Rebecca’s blog, time-stamped December 2nd, 5:50 p.m.
Anelsie, please check out this blog post at the Scrapbook Circle blog to claim your kit!


Have you seen all the circles in the Scrapbook Circle December kit All is Bright and Add On Holly Jolly? There are giant circle rhinestones from Glitz Design, stickers from Studio Calico, Fancy Pants buttons, Elle's Studio patterned paper and exclusive Scrapbook Circle cuts. All the circles reminded me of Christmas decorations so I layered a bunch for a merry layout.

My favorite circle is the Scrapbook Circle exclusive cut that I cut out of kraft cardstock and layered over the glitter cardstock. Over that I punched out a circle from the Elle's Studio patterned paper and layered a chipboard button over that. I also love that a Glitz Rhinestone fits right on top of the Fancy Pants button! Circles are so much fun to layer!

Do you like to design with circles? Which circle type is your favorite?

Scrapbok Circle All is Bright Blog Hop

Wow, when I take a break, I REALLY take a break! But I am back with a phenomenal post that includes a  huge chance to win an awesome prize!!

The creative team at Scrapbook Circle is ending the year with a bang! We are hopping along and you can win an All Is Bright December kit from Scrapbook Circle. Each Creative Team member is giving away a kit on their blog. That's right — 12 chances to win! We are celebrating the holiday season and YOU get the gifts!


You should have come to my blog from the fabulous blog of Jenni Calma. You can also start at the Scrapbook Circle blog. And you can stop back by there to see the full hop list and get some more details.

The transparency was my FAVORITE item in the kit and I knew my first layout was going to feature it.

I generally struggle with transparencies. But this one was so easy to use with it's simple but fabulous star pattern. I simply layered it over green cardstock from the December Cardstock Add On and hid adhesive behind the photos. After adhering some of the red glitter trim, I decided to stitch a border around the top edge. I had fun layering the Fancy Pants chipboard stars UNDER the transparancy.
I used the exclusive Scrapbook Circle stamp and Staz On ink so it wouldnt smear and stamped on the transparency. Just that in and of itself was enough to stress me out ;) but I like the way it turned out.

I've already made 4 layouts and a card with the All is Bright Kit and Holly Jolly add on and I am looking forward to making more!

Your next stop on the hop is the incredible Tessa Buys, so run over to her blog right now! Keep hopping and leaving comments as you go, so you have up to 12 chances to win the December kit from Scrapbook Circle. Good Luck!
