This week’s Saturday Sketch is all about festive layers, poinsettias, and holiday cheer!
I’m sharing my version of the sketch, complete with supply details and measurements so you can recreate it at home.
Layout Highlights
✨ A bold NOEL tag anchors the design. For the word NOEL I used the Festive Cheers dies (168133) and Real Red cardstock ( 102482). Layerd that on some Green Timeless Metallic Specility Paper (168548)
✨ Poinsettias, holly, cut with the Pretty Poinsettia dies 9168146) and pine sprigs cut from Festive Cheers dies, add dimension and festive flair.
✨ Splatter stamping using the Frosted Pinecones stamp set (168369), creates subtle background texture.
✨ A Stiched Season DSP creates the side bars and creates the feel of a festive season.
✨ Layered photo mats make your holiday memories pop.
This layout is perfect for showcasing two favorite holiday photos while keeping the design balanced and stash‑friendly.
Measurements:
- A 12″ x 12″ sheet of DSP that is basically Real Red. I used some from my stash.
- A 11″ x 11-1/2″ sheet of Basic White Cardstock (166782). The 11-1/2″ allows slanting the Basic White on the DSP.
- A 2-3/4″ x 11″ strip of the “A Stiched Season” DSP. Then tear toward you.
- 1-1/2″ x 11″ coordinating DSP. Tuck this strip under the other strip.
💡 Crafting Tip: When layering poinsettias, curl the petals slightly with a bone folder for extra dimension.
I enjoyed using the sketch as inspiration and hope you try it. Enjoy!
