Sarah Packer – Christmas on Carnaby Street

It’s Sarah here today!  I’m loving using embossing powders on cut files at the moment and this one is no exception!!  I have used the Paige Evans Lightstrand Background cut file (pre cut in white, cream or black) in white and used a lovely rich gold embossing powder to make it more Christmassy and to fit in with the theme of my page. 

Once I had heat embossed the cut file, I then back filled the bulbs with an Echo Park Christmas range I bought last year! Nothing like a bit of stash busting eh?!

I loved the colours in this range and they totally fitted with the all the bright colours in my photos of the Carnaby Street Christmas lights and decorations which I took last year. I do love a trip in to London to look at the Christmas lights!

Once they were all filled, I raised the cut file up on foam pads and stuck it to some black cardstock to make it pop! I then mounted my 2 photos on some of the leftover papers and stuck them to the cut file. I didn’t use too many embellishments on this page, as the lights were enough. I just used a couple of stickers from the Echo Park range, some wood veneer pieces, sequins and some Heidi Swapp Gold Colour shine. For the title I used some glittery gold Thickers.

With love and colour
