11.24.15 O Holy Night

Have you thought about making a Christmas card this year? Making a digital card with Chelle’s Classic kit O Holy Night is as easy as 1-2-3. First, you’ll need the kit. Second, you’ll need the word art. Finally, you’ll need a cute family snapshot. You can make your creation digitally and then order custom cards printed at any number of retail printers.

Karen has a digital scrapbooking page to show us that she made with O Holy Night and the coordinating word art. I love what she did with the hint of sheet music in the cluster of elements around her frame. Take a look!

Now take a second look back at her page. I think her layout would make a fantastic Christmas card to send out to her friends and family. She could switch out the photo with one from the current year and change the date on the page, then crop the entire page to whatever card size she wanted and she would have a professional card for the year, custom made.

Want to play? Here’s the kit and the word art in the market.

Hey Everyone! Are you familiar with Chelle’s digital scrapbooking collections, Master Builder and Jump Zone? Let me give you a peek of the 2 collections. But don’t forget to check out Karen’s layout below.

Here are the coordinating products.

Here’s a layout by Karen. I soooo love this layout. Got to say though, I didn’t know there was a duct tape holiday. What a fun use of all the colors. I think Olaf is my favorite duct tape creature.

Enjoy! I love to see what you create. If you make a layout, please post it in the SO pin gallery using #chelle.

11.09.15 Midnight Crow

Today we’re taking a look at a classic Chelle’s Creation kit called Midnight Crow. It’s got the cutest fall color scheme and elements of any kit on the market. Those crows are adorable! Take a look at what Chelle’s creative team has come up with for us.

First, Jenny had the terrific idea of using a vertical layout for all her goodies on the page. I love the thought of “fall” falling down the page, and this kit is perfect for her pumpkin patch photo.

Next, Kayla shared a page with us that is a large photo of her daughter in a pumpkin patch. Take a really close look at it – Chelle’s elements are so life-like I found it difficult to pick out what was in the photo and what was an element Kayla added to the page.

Finally, Jenn gave us this bright and cheerful fall page. I love the yellow background that brings out the bright and sunny fall day featured in her photos. And look at that crow peaking out up top. Isn’t he the best?

If this kit has escaped your attention until now, you can find it in the market by clicking the images below.
