Oh Happy Day! | Melissa Minor | January Color Kitz

 Hi friends! Melissa Minor here on the blog today. I'm sharing a layout I made using the gorgeous January Color Kitz. 

I started my layout by cutting 3 strips of patterned paper from the kit. I cut 2 strips 2x10 and 1 strip 3x10. I then drew some pencil lines around the strips so I knew where to place my paint. I pulled 3 matching paint colors. For the red I choose Buddy's Favorite Color-Shimmerz. The center color is a pink called Pink About It-Inklingz. This is a brand new color! It's a really pretty shade of pink. For the green I used The Holly & The Ivy-Inklingz. My white background is a sheet of Mixed Media cardstock cut down to 11x11. I matted that onto the green tree pattern paper from the kit. I think the green really draws your eye to my photos. 

The photos I'm scrapbooking are of my daughter putting her tree up. Each year she decorates her room for Christmas. She does it all herself. Her room looks like a winter wonderland. It's so cozy! Her tree skirt has snowmen on it. So, the snowman face ephemera piece was a perfect addition to the page. I also used a few of the tree puffy stickers and the tree die cut ephemera. 

I used the tree epoxy dot that came in the kit, but also brought in an additional epoxy flair dot from my stash. Behind the epoxy dots I added a little tangled thread for some added interest. I chose an acrylic title from Color Cast Designs -Oh Happy Day!
