Here Comes Santa Claus - Doodlebug

Hi everyone! Today, on Doodlebug's blog I'm sharing a "Here Comes Santa Claus" layout! Yes, I know it's early days, but as far as I'm concerned you can never be too early for Christmas!! Christmas is my favorite time of the year and I can't wait for it to be December again!

Here's what I created for today's blog post: 


I started this layout with the large background Christmas tree, which I cut from the "Holiday Hearts" paper and matted it with the "Cupcake Gingham-Linen Petite Prints" paper. Next I matted my two photos and arranged them on the tree. All the embellishments came next. My layout turned out a little busy as I'm never able to stop adding more and more die-cuts, stickers. sprinkles, etc. 

The Odds & Ends package is full of cute Santa's! Here's one of them: Santa in a plane .. isn't he fun?! And don't you adore the "Red Robin Mini Doodle-Pops" and that fun paper clip?! I sure do!


I decorated all the hearts in the tree with shiny Sprinkles from the "Holly Berries" Shape Sprinkles and the "Candy Cane" Shape Sprinkles. 


For another layout I needed only the top of one of the Santa stickers and so I had the legs left ... Don't you think it looks like he's hiding behind the tree?


I just love the shiny Candy Cane Shape Sprinkles in this collection so much! 


And one last close-up. I added some machine stitching for the finishing touch. 


Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today. I can't wait to see what you'll create with this awesome Christmas collection!

Have a fabulous day!
Monique
