Reminisce - North Pole Express

 

Happy New Year everyone! Today I'm here to share a couple of layouts using the Reminisce "North Pole Express" kit. It is one of those patterned paper packs that is almost too beautiful to cut up! I used the Santa's sleigh paper to create a super-simple layout of my daughter's family Christmas Eve photo. The golden sleigh was a perfect backdrop! I die cut a Christmas greeting (from Tonic Studios) out of Tim Holtz - Idea-Ology Kraft Stock Metallic Champagne and Onyx  and used a gold pen to add the date, as well as matting the photo with the gorgeous metallic paper. This paper cuts like a dream!

This layout is created for my grandson's album. We took a trip on the Polar Express in 2017 and he loved interacting with this hobo. We had a lot of fun with him, and it is my grandson's favorite memory of the event. This paper is perfect to document the trip. I did my journalling on vellum and then mounted it on light grey cardstock so it didn't get lost in the forest.

 

This card was created with a Cosmic Shimmer Opal Polish, a sparkly ink that has a dauber end on it. I used the gold ink to stamp the watercolor poppies, added a bit of red ink and then ran the dauber over the edge of the cardstock mat to match the blooms. Instant glitz!

This New Years card was die cut from the Tim Holtz - Idea-Ology Kraft Stock Metallic Champagne and Onyx as well. I like to have a few New Year's cards on hand for sending to some friends who I don't always send Christmas cards to. How nice to get a shiny card in January!!!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend!
