Once in a while, I find a collection that warms my heart. This is one of them. Katie Pertiets digital collection, Home For The Holidays transformed into paper. I created printables in Photoshop to the size I wanted all of the elements, and fussy cut each one out. Sometimes I run them through my Silhouette Cameo, but fussy cutting sooths my soul. I started with a 12x12 piece of white cardstock. I stitched around the borders a few times using straight and zig zag stitches. Such a wonderful thing to do is print the digital Blendables onto Washi paper. I cut them up and used them on the background before I started
all of the layering along with splattering some color to match the colors of the papers.

Once I cut the elements out, I started my layering. I added an 8.5x8.5 square of printed solid paper over the base lifted it with cardboard underneath. I printed the houses on cardstock, fussy cut the strip of houses, backed them with cardboard and adhered it towards the bottom.

I die cut the poinsettias from the Sacked Solid Paper Pack 01, layered them, filled the middle with Prills and dusted the flowers with clear glitter for sparkle. I also die cut spiral flowers to tuck in-between the floral clusters. The leaves were fussy cut from the collection.
Here is a closeup of the flowers.
I used jute to string through the ephemera. and tucked it slightly behind the houses.
