Happy Sunday Everyone!
 
Today I'm sharing four projects I created using the gorgeous holiday kit from:
 
~Scraps of Elegance~
 
My first snow filled page was created using "Bo Bunny" papers.  I played with the gold color add on in the kit by "Viva".....
To create the background effect I added tissue paper using "Mod Podge".....I went over it with the gold crackle paint by "Viva".....I wanted to create textures mimicking the snow drifts in the photo....
I painted over some of the wooden snowflakes, stars and flowers included in the kit. I added some machine stitching to the coordinating paper behind the photo.....
The winter white roses and gold cording were included in the kit.  I swirled the cording throughout the rose clusters....
I also added some of the golden rub by "Viva" throughout the layout.  I heat embossed a few golden snowflakes using "Stampendous" embossing powder.
When I saw the papers by "Graphic 45" I wanted to make a tag using an image of an angel.  The roses and the word peace inspired me to create a peaceful angelic Christmas tag......
I used the gorgeous flowers and crochet gold lurex trim included in the kit.
I used a red embossing powder by "Lindy's Stamp Gang" around the edges of the photo and tag.
The flowers are a combination of "Petaloo" and "Prima".....
Project three was based on Melinda's beautiful sketch.
  I happened to go through some photo's I had saved on my Wal-Mart account from years ago.  I lost this image on another computer and luckily found it there!!
I created a similar layout years ago using this image.  I no longer have the layout......My son is sleeping so I wanted to distress the paper and create a blanket effect behind the photo....
 I heat embossed the wooden diamonds and added them throughout the layout.  I also did cutwork on the Santa and heat embossed the edges of the paper.
I added some machine stitching around the "paper" blankets... 

 I never had a chance to scrap the photo in project number four.  I altered the photo by adding a Santa hat using photoshop....
 I loved working with the chipboard elements from "MME" included in the kit.  They're full of gorgeous details and glitter....
I added some gold crackle paint by "Viva" and highlighted some of the flowers with golden rub on paint by "Viva"....I cut out one of the deer from the "Bo Bunny" papers and heat embossed it.
 
The beautiful poinsettias are include with the flower add on....
This kit is has so many gorgeous holiday pieces to work with.  You'll be VERY pleased with the wonderful papers, embellishments and more!!
 
Have a wonderful holiday season!!
