Welcome to TaDa Creative Studios’
After The Holiday Blog Hop!
TaDa Creative Studios is excited to sponsor its first blog hop ever! Throughout the Hop, we will be featuring projects from our most recent collections – Jolly Holly Days, Big Top , and Bountiful Blooms. We hope that you enjoy reviewing all the projects just as we enjoyed created them for you!

My double-layout project uses Jolly Holly Days! Christmas is so fresh in my mind that I needed to take the time to capture those precious moments that each of my children had. There was no better way than with this TaDa collection!!
As many of you, I love to scrapbook! However, having four children requires me to sort through tons of pictures - all of which are sentimental to me. Due to the amount of pictures I have, I am always trying to find layouts that can handle multiple pictures as well as some fun and craftiness. When I looked at this collection (Jolly Holly Days), the stockings truly inspired me. From this aspect, my design sprung:
I used the "Long Stocking" paper as my beginning guide. I placed a slice of "Hung with Care" for the opposite side of the stocking (the see-through side, so-to-speak). From there I matched a solid paper to the red in the "Hung with Care" and started on the other half of the double lay out. I used the reverse of "Hung with Care" to create a swoop of stockings, adding bling and a title where I could. I then built a fireplace using "Ginger and Lace" and scraps from my first papers and the "Snippets and Clippets". So you know - the "Snippets and Clippets" can be cut and sliced to add embellishments throughout any project - as you can see in my layout. Of course the last thing is to add the perfect pictures and a bit of journaling.....and TA-DA...I have a lovely layout!!!
