Something Tattered Holiday Blog Hop


Welcome to the First Annual Something Tattered Holiday Blog Hop!

We are so excited to share our creations using the gorgeous vintage style stamps created by Beth Neumann. Our Design Team has been hard at work crafting their Holiday projects for you to see! We hope that you will be inspired and want to try some of these beautiful and elegantly detailed stamps for yourself!

There will be a chance to win a monogram set of your choice for every blog that you visit and complete the steps below.

Here's the project I have put together for this hop - it's a Christmas Planner:

 
I used papers from KaiserCraft's Tea Break collection, and put the book together using a Zutter. That's one of the images from the O monogram set coloured to look like a wreath on the cover. Under the computer generated title is the U monogram - the flourish was too lovely to resist! Here's a close up:
 
 
 The pages on the inside are pockets, which are simply sealed kraft envelopes with their tops cut off. I used a circle punch at the top to enable easier access of the pocket contents. Here's one of the pages opened up - I used the Cards stamp set on this page:
 
 
The flourish from the X Monogram set peeks out from under this image. I also stamped the crown above the words - I was delighted with the detail in the stamp!


Here are images from the Menu Tea set and the Cake set:


I used the swag image from the Bride to Be set here, and one of the little bird on the bottom right hand corner:


I have embellished this page with images from the French August set:


And here's the flourish from the French August set (the word Aout has been covered up with my computer generated title):


If you're still with me on this epic post, I'd like to congratulate you! Not long to go now.......
