Check out this eye candy from Laura Vegas. Laura used Making Memories' Noel collection for this layout. To create it for yourself, add a photo to a 6" x 6" piece of patterned paper. Cover bottom of layout with coordinating paper. Add embellishments, brads, stickers and title.
This layout was created by Leah Fung using Making Memories' Noel collection.
She created a ruffle on the bottom of the page by folding pattern paper and stitching the top.
Are you in need of neighbor or teacher gift ideas? Wendy Anderson created these simple projects using her Slice.
Use the Slice to create an envelope for hot chocolate mixes.
Cut out various die-cuts with the Slice and place them between two pieces of parchment paper as a fun decoration.
Here is a quick holiday idea from Wendy Anderson. Wendy used Making Memories' Noel collection for her layout.She created a summary page with photos of her kids. She then added a quick title and a few embellishments to finish it off. The result....lovely.
Make sure to take lots of photos this holiday season so you can scrapbook your favorite memories.
Today Jenny Brannies is Making Memories guest designer. Jenny explained how she created these projects.
I created this project for a teacher gift. I created an accordion flower for the top of the pail. To create this, hand-fold a piece of 1/5” x 12” paper several times. Glue the ends together and then pinch to make a circular flower. Hot glue both the top and the bottom. Secure the center with a circle. Add the other embellishments on pail as shown.
Products used:
Felt Poinsettia Blossom, Patterned Paper (snowflake argyle, green snowflake), charm: Making Memories’ Noel Collection
Green ribbon, gems, jump ring, pumice stone distress ink Stampendous, pail: Other
I also created a seasonal 12” x 12” layout. Journaling is an important part of the layouts that I create. This is what my journaling says:
"Being Autistic, we didn't know how you would do sitting on a strange man's lap.
So we waited until you were four to introduce you to Santa.
I was worried. I thought you might cry. Especially because there were so many people around and it was a little over-stimulating for you.
But you went up and sat on Santa's lap like a big boy.
You were quiet at first... Until Santa said the magic word - TOY.
Then you came to life and told him that you wanted a Buzz Lightyear computer and a (hand) mixer for Christmas!
We're so proud of you. And we're sure "Santa" will get you all your heart desires for Christmas this year. - December 4, 2010"

Do you need a holiday gift idea for a school teacher? Why not fill a jar with his or her favorite treats? That's exactly what Wendy Anderson did. After filling the jar, she used her Slice to cut out various flower die-cuts. She then layered the flowers to decorate the lid. Give this a try if you are in need of a gift idea.
