I was absolutely THRILLED when Leo Kowal from SVG Cuts contacted me and asked me to be a Guest Designer for their 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway celebration! (Be sure to check in daily on the SVG Cuts Facebook page for a chance at some FANTASTIC prizes!!! Hint, Hint: Today they have a giveaway for a Silhouette CAMEO! Eeek!) I have been collecting SVG Cuts files over the past year and LOVE everything they create. If you haven’t taken a peek at their website you NEEEEEED to! Watch a few of their videos and you will see what I mean. 😉 Amazing, amazing stuff! And sooo much fun to create with!
This week they are having a 25% off total purchase Christmas sale (use coupon code XMAS at checkout). As a thank you to their customers, this week they will also be putting up an entire collection as a FREE GIFT for their customers. WOW! How awesome is that?! I will let you know when it goes up so you can download it.
Okay … onto my project. 🙂
I created three layouts using their amazing cuts and have the first page to share with you today. For complete instructions and cut sizes check out my project HERE at SVG Cuts.com.

How cute are those nesting dolls?! The minute I saw them, I knew I wanted to use them on a holiday page. I used various papers from my scrap stash for the cut outs and then used the My Mind’s Eye Mistletoe Magic collection for the background papers. Here’s a closer look.
To add a bit of texture to the nesting dolls clothes, I used a couple of embossing folders. The trees on Mrs. Claus’ apron are a BasicGrey embossing folder called Snow & Trees. The snowman’s cape is embossed with Cuttlebug Houndstooth folder. I added chalk to the nesting dolls cheeks and hair for a bit more dimension and then used pearl stickers in both white and black as buttons and eyes.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! My posts are going to be a bit sporadic until I get through the holidays, but I will definitely hop on when I have something to share. Don’t forget to check out SVG Cuts 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways on Facebook. They have some AWE-SOME prizes that you won’t want to miss!
See you soon!
