Page Ideas
- Children with Lights:
Use the purple, light blue and green children from the 'Dancing Children' stickers. Add floor lines and motion lines under feet and hands. 'String' small Christmas lights across the page and through the children's hands.
- Using silverware, Christmas ribbon and wreath stickers. Make two thick lines with pens and then arrange the stickers inside and cut off the edges. It's a great page for Christmas dinners and the silverware looks so elegant!
- At the top left corner put a sleigh die-cut slightly tilted upward. Then on the very back of the top of the sleigh put jingle bells and bow stickers. Under that put jingle bells and ribbons stickers. In the lower right hand corner put more jingle bells and ribbons. On the sleigh put the year with silver number stickers.
- "The ornaments of our home are the friends that gather there."
Use die-cut ornaments shaped as frames/mats for photos of friends.
- A variation of an idea in the Fancy Pages Die-cut set:
Memory Jar. Make it in Xmas colors and then crop the pictures in circles to 'fill up the jar' plus add some Peppermint round candy made with the circle cutter. The label could read: "Christmas Sweets". Perfect for grandchildren at Xmas time. (Mary W.)
- Cut three 1 1/2" squares each out of cranberry gingham and evergreen gingham and then cut the same number of 2" squares out of the solids (or vise versa). Put the smaller squares on top of the larger squares and trim the edges of the large square with scallop or deckle edge scissors. Adhere the squares down the edge of the page point to point (diamond shaped) to look like napkins. Take six sets of silverware stickers and 'tie' them with Christmas bow stickers. Place them on the squares.
- Christmas page: (using one black page inserted in album) Use the gold pen with a border ruler across the white sheet and onto the black sheet and then do silver the same way on the back of the black sheet onto the white. Use stickers that look good on both black and white pages.
- Variation on 'front and center'. Use a red wide-tip pen for the outside edge, a green fine-tip pen for the middle, and a red fine-tip pen for the inside lines. Put a sticker of punched out holly branch in each corner. Use dark red letters for the title. At the bottom of the box and where the page split the box, cut a bow in half and put one half on each page at the bottom edge of the box. Use small deep red triangles in the top corners. On the bottom tuck a square of cranberry and a square of checkered under the pictures on each side of the page.(Judy)
- Cut a strip of deep blue paper 4 1/4" x 11" and adhere it down one side of the page. Near the bottom of the strip group four small snowman stickers. Scatter snowflake stickers randomly on the blue paper. Also scatter among them some small music note stickers. This is great for pictures of Christmas caroling.
- There are many stickers and die-cuts that you can use to replace the "O" in "Ho, Ho, Ho". Among them are ornaments, jingle bells, photos cut in circles, wreaths, etc.
You can use candy cane stickers to make the 'M' and 'C' in the words 'Merry Christmas'.
- Country Christmas Page
Use ABC stickers to spell out 'Merry Christmoos!' In the lower left corner put some grass stickers and the red cow die-cut (or a cow sticker). Put a Santa hat sticker on the cow and put holly stickers around the title and on the cow's tail. (Teri Hammond)
- Checkerboard border:
This border can go at the top, bottom or side of the page. Cut about 12 one inch squares from evergreen or cranberry gingham paper. Adhere them along the edge of the page in two rows--alternating them like a checkerboard. Put a holly sticker in each of the resulting 1" white spaces.
- Another 2-page spread: Cut six strips of cranberry paper 1 1/4" x 12". Put along the outer edges of the 2-page spread. Cut some 1" squares from any Christmas looking print paper. Adhere the squares about 1" apart along the strips of paper."Stitch" around each square with a black pen. Use cranberry ABC stickers for the title (one idea: "Home Spun Christmas"). Decorate the letters with stitches and/or dots. Add a cranberry bow die-cut to the top right corner. (JoAnna M. CMC)
- Christmas Jiffy Borders:
1. Cut a 2-inch strip of evergreen paper. Use red die-cut letters to spell Ho Ho Ho...only use circles for O's instead of die-cut letters. Place a holly sticker in the middle of each O. This would also look good with a smaller strip of evergreen gingham on top of the evergreen strip.
2. Cut a white strip. Use Christmas design line stickers (like candy cane stripes or, ribbon, or holly) on top and bottom. Put two elves on either side of strip, facing in. One seated and one standing behind it on each side. Write in red pen "All I want for Christmas is..." This is great for a letter to Santa page or kids opening gifts.
- Simple but great 2-page spread: Cut 3 strips of evergreen paper 1 1/2" x 12". Cut three strips of evergreen gingham paper 1" x 12". Center the gingham paper on the solid paper and adhere. Adhere one strip vertically about 1 inch from the left edge of the left page of the two-page spread. Put the other two strips horizontally on the two pages 2 or 3 inches below the top of the page. Where the horizontal and vertical strips cross add a cranberry bow die-cut. Use the space above the strips for title and journaling and the space below the strips for photos.
- Borderlines Christmas Tree:
Mark the center top edge of a piece of green paper. Place an ocean wave border ruler on the paper so that it goes from that center point to one of the bottom corners. Be sure that the 'waves' point downward. Flip the ruler and cut the other side of the tree. To decorate the tree use the wavy border ruler. Put it horizontally on the tree and draw lines with the gold pen at each place where the inside of the 'waves' curve inward (or wherever you think it looks good). Put ornament, candy cane and bow stickers on the gold lines. Put a star or poinsettia at the top. (Linda H.)
- The circle cutter is great for cropping photos for Christmas pages:
1) Cut three graduated sizes for a snowman. Cut a black hat from paper and draw the arms with a pen.
2) Arrange circles on the page like ornaments and draw strings to hang them. Use holly or bow stickers at the top of the 'ornaments' or at the top of the page.
3) Cut six circles and arrange them in a tree shape. Journal with a brown pen just below the center circle on the bottom row to make the trunk. Add a star punch or sticker at the top.
4) Form six or more circles into a wreath. Add a bow and some holly stickers.
5) Try matting all or some of the photos.
- There are several Christmas ideas in the Peek-A-Boo Page Idea file.
Fancy Page Idea
Make a HALF Christmas tree template out of thin cardboard that refill pages come on. The tree should be the full length of the cardboard from top to bottom and as wide as possible. Line it up along the inside jeeping of a page and trace it onto the page and cut out. The outer jeeping will be removed and the inside jeeping will be the trunk of the tree. Put one or more tree shaped pages in the middle of a two page spread.
Cover the trees with green paper (solid or print) on both sides. The tree shapes can be used for journaling, title or extra photos. You could cut small photos or parts of photos in to circle and 'hang' on the tree like ornaments. Decorate with stickers or pens. You can make presents out of paper and place across bottoms of the pages that are on either side of the tree. Be sure to plan the layout of the pages on either side so they look okay with the inner pages as you turn them.
You can also cut two more half tree shapes from the same green paper you use to cover the trees. Put those two trees on the pages that the cut page will go between. That way the tree always looks complete whichever way you have the pages open. You could use a pen to color the jeeping.
