“Naughty or Nice?” - By Amy Churchward

Christmas is just around the corner, and with it comes the joy of creating festive layouts that capture the spirit of the season! This year, I decided to play around with a theme that’s both playful and nostalgic: “Naughty or Nice?”. After all, isn’t that the age-old question we all ponder during the holidays?

As we dive into this month's Christmas topic, the Holiday Magic Colour palette really sets the mood. Think rich reds, deep greens, and shimmering golds – the perfect blend to bring out the warmth and wonder of the season.

For this layout, I had so much fun mixing and matching some gorgeous papers and embellishments. 

The Luckyfindings Image: Holly was the ideal touch to frame the central photo, giving it that classic Christmas vibe. 

I used various papers from the Vicki Boutin Warm Wishes Collection, including “Holiday Wishes”, “Hello December”, “Holly Jolly”, “Snow Day”, and “Evergreen”. These papers are just so versatile and beautifully designed, making it easy to layer them for a rich, textured look.

One of my favourite tricks is using the Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher to staple papers together. Not only does it serve its practical purpose, but it also adds a cute, rustic embellishment to the layout. 

To give the page a bit of sparkle, I splattered some Simon Hurley Lunar Paste in Slippery When Wet – it’s just the right amount of shimmer to catch the eye without being too overwhelming.

Of course, no layout is complete without a few finishing touches from my stash! I added some star embellishments and flair from Charms Creations that brought the whole piece together.

Thanks so much for looking! I hope this inspires you to get into the Christmas spirit and create something magical this holiday season.

Happy scrapping!

Amy 😊
