Holiday Hop!



Welcome to the Paper Secrets Holiday Blog Hop! I am your 11th spot on the hop. If you came from Vickie, then you are in the right place. If not, why don't you join in on all the fun and start at the beginning at Kristi's blog.

I have a couple projects to share with you today. I'll start with these fantastic letters from Say It With Letters that I altered:



I used the Tradition line from Fancy Pants Designs. I made the flowers myself too, with their papers, ribbons, and buttons. Here are some close up's of the letters so you can see them a little bit better:






I used adhesive from Helmar to put everything together. I used the Premium Craft Glue and the Liquid Scrap Dots. I like using the Liquid Scrap Dots when making my flowers because it is heavier and works to keep it all together really well. Speaking of Helmar....Helmar has MORE giveaways for you...you can check that info out here.

And then I also wanted to share a layout with you. This layout was also made with the Tradition line from Fancy Pants:



Those ornaments were already on this particular piece of paper. I cut them out and then used them in the exact same spot. :) I just lifted them up a bit with the Liquid Scrap Dots from Helmar. I used Helmar's 450 Quick Dry Adhesive for the rest of the layout.

Here are some close up's of my layout:
