Here are a few tips to making this layout. 1) I cut the designer paper into 2"x2" squares to make the presents. 2) See the large circle on the right side? Begin by trimming down your Cherry Cobbler cardstock to 11"x11" then cut your circle in the middle. Use the circle on the left side and the "negative image" on the right side. I put a piece of Lucky Limeade cardstock behind the "negative hole" so it appears as if I cut another circle but I didn't. GREAT use of your leftovers, huh? 3) The zigzag was created using one of my very favorite Big Shot dies; Tasteful Trim. This die is worth every dime - 4 different borders that you can die cut to any size up to 12". You can find the die by CLICKING HERE. 4) It's tough to see in the photograph but I did stamp small stars, randomly, on the Cherry Cobbler cardstock.
