Bec's Days 1,2,3 & 4.................



 Remember that Christmas tree I started?? Well this is what I did...............



Some texture paste through the star stencil, some green gelato to enhance the green of the tree and some black Faber Castell Pitt Pen to add some shading around the tree. I've also used a Tim Holtz Christmas stencil to add the words 'Jingle Bell' and 'Christmas' to the page. 


Day 1..........
I mounted the 2 smaller photos onto black card to make them pop from the page, while the larger photo is mounted in black photo corners. My journalling is on a Kraft tag with some added red seam binding.

Now while I didn't have black photo corners, I used the white ones that I had and changed the colour of them with a charcoal ink pad.



Day 2.............
The 'Tinsel' photo is double mounted on black card and then gold glitter paper for added POP. And the use of washi tape to add some interest.
The numbers I cut out on my Cameo in a black cardstock, nice and big.



Day 3..............
This page was stencilled and not covered in paper, so I mounted the photos again on black cardstock and added some washi tape and some cute little stickers from the Under The Tree (October Afternoon) sticker sheet. I drew a black line around each bunting.


Day 4..................
Quite a simple page. I flicked some red and gold mist/spray onto the page and mounted the photo in the photo corners. 


We've added the 
'Completed Pages' link .....
