We had to use 1) eyelets; 2) a frame; and 3) a die cut.
Recently reorganized my scrapbooking supplies and almost tossed my eyelets, but I saved a few of the basic colors.
Framed the Santa die cut (does that count?)
But the best was, I LOVED digging back in my stash and finding these diecuts. Santa was probably bought at least 10 years ago (my sisters and I would go nuts over these things). I think the candy canes were from a die cut swap I did (again, years and years ago!).
Also, since I reorganized I pulled out all my Sizzix alphabet fonts now that I have room for them. So used those for my title since the kids and I were watching a movie and they always complain about my loud Cricut (as if they could hear it over Thor kicking butt).
Great challenge and so glad to have this layout done (it's from 2012!)

Nice arrangement of the photos, really laid out well to tell the story of all those scrumptious looking cookies. The candy cane borders join the pages. Your Santa embellishment is the perfect addition, especially with the little envelope. (Good thing you didn't toss all those wonderful eyelets!)

This page is just darling; so festive with the candy canes and yet not overdone- your photos still are the focus of your pages. And that Santa is soooo cute!

I'm sorry its taken so long to comment on your layout! I missed it somehow :(
It does the heart good to go through and re-organize once in a while, so glad you found things you have fond memories about and were able to use them again!!
I love the way you framed Santa and yes, it counts!
