30 days with Xyron project 3

Hi Everyone I back again with my 3rd project for the Xyron 30days of holiday projects

What is old is new again for your christmas decorations, I have had these two sleighs for some time and where a bit tired and shabby! so hence as one does is revamped them scrapbooking style !

1st sleigh I have used American crafts peppermint express pattern papers and the thickers glitter stickers Xyron 1.5 create a sticker , foam squares from the Teresa Collins adhesive pack and the Mega runner

2nd sleigh i have used Imaginisce Christmas countdown paper range , Xyron 1.5 create a sticker , foam squares from the Teresa Collins adhesive pack and the Mega runner

Easy as !

1. give them a light sand

2. cover in AC pattern paper, ink the edges

3. cut strips out of your AC pattern paper and any embellishements in the pattern paper
4. NO glue just run them through your Xyron sticker maker for quick and ease

A very Easy project making what's old is new again !

Please join us on Xyron Facebook for more inspiration from the design team

Xyron and Heidi Swapp blog hop

Heidi Swapp and the Xyron Design Team have been pair up for a blog hop filled with holiday inspiration using Heidi's Believe collection. All week long we'll be sharing project ideas, tutorials and giveaways - so happy you're here!

Today I have made a mini album using the heidi swapp color magic jumbo pennants and of course the yummy believe collection

Easy as to create your own !

just a few simple steps

step 1. - colour the pennants using the heidi Swapp color shine

step 2.- On the reverse sides of your pennants cover with the Believe pattern paper

step 3 - Now Using the creative station to attach your pattern paper to the pennants

will take all the work out of glueing

step 4- You should have all your pennants covered with pattern paper on one side

and Color shine on the resist side

step 5- Now arrange your pages in order( I have smallest to front and largest to back)

using a paper clip to hold in place

step 6 - punch 2 holes as shown above, then

tie string or ribbon to hold your album together

or if you like use album jump rings

step 7- fussy cut embellishments for your front cover

place as shown.

Be sure to head on over to the Heidi Swapp blog all week as well - Heidi's Design Team will be sharing some fabulous projects they've made using Xyron products. You are sure to be inspired!

We want to help you with your holiday projects as well - so we'll be doing a giveaway here on the blog every day this week. Leave a comment today and we'll pick two lucky winners to receive a Xyron Mega Runner. We'll post the winners tomorrow on the Xyron Facebook Page.
