Merry & Bright

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and I don't know about you, but I am starting to feel the holiday spirit. :) I'm one of those people who tries not to start any holiday festivities before Thanksgiving, but when I saw the new Borders Cut File Bundle from Scrapbook.com, I knew I had to break out my Christmas crafting supplies a little early.

This cut file is super versatile! For each of the 7 border designs included in the bundle, you get three length options (5.5, 8, and 12 inches) which makes them perfect for cards, layouts, and pretty much any other crafting you may feel like doing.

I used the short fringe file to cut 8" strips from two green papers from my stash. Then I layered these strips on a triangle background to create a gorgeous, dimensional tree for my page!

I also used the heart file to cut a border for the top of my page from a candy cane stripe paper, then paired it with a strip of the same green paper from my tree. I added strips of both to the bottom as well to balance the page.

Once those elements were in place, all that was left to do was embellish. I used the Home for the Holidays collection from Pinkfresh Studio to add tons of adorable elements to fill in all the spaces on my page.

You can see the whole thing come together in the video below.

Now, how about you? Have you started you holiday crafting yet?
