Oscraps

Hello and welcome to our special holiday edition of Cheery-O Favorites. We normally only have 5 layouts, but we decided to do things a little differently for this post. Let’s take a look at the layouts and one ATC that our Cheery-O’s have picked from our overflowing gallery. Here is our final post for this year.

Petit Papa Noel by Wimmeke
Love the vintage look of this LO… from the large Santa to the stacked gifts and beautiful clusters. There is so many delightful vintage images around and behind the Santa. The old gold edging is a perfect frame for page.

Day 9- ATCs-Winter ATC by Roxyrenders
What a beautiful page! I love each beautiful and magical winter scenes! Each little scene is a work of art! It reminds me of looking out the window on a cold winter’s day to watch the children at play!

First of all, I love how the photos just pop! The cutie pie’s face expressions are so cute. Great job journaling. I love how the page is organized with different clusters.

Nostalgia by cfile
I love the mystery of this, created by the earth tones, the blending and the scribbles. The feel of the poem is perfectly expressed by this expertly crafted layout. which totally captures London in the Industrial age, with the expectation of Christmas right around the corner. Beautiful and creative layout.

First Frost by AJM (Aly)

This layout is so adorable, with the cute puppy photo. I love the way the puppy appears to be looking at the tiny bird, with the bird also looking back at the puppy. The horizontal arrangement of the image and elements, embracing the edges of the page, is remarkable. Overall, it is an outstanding page.

Day 1 – Me First by chocochoco
I saw this in the Haps newsletter first and had to click on it to see who the amazing artist was that created this amazing page! I should have known it would be Gloria with her signature style of creating stunning clusters and shadowing! Her choice of using neutral tones really makes this layout a stand out in the gallery, as well as the overall page design as well. Absolutely stunning in every aspect.

Baby It’s Cold Outside

The picture of this little boy experiencing snow for the first time is just precious. I love how he’s captured standing in front of the woods, with his footprints all around. The background almost looks like a painting.

Day6 -ChainLift- preen by bellbird

The first thing that drew me to this layout was the cockatiel. I LOVE cockatiels! Beyond that, I love the use of the white space in the photos, particularly the one with the bird justified to the right of photo. The rustic frame and the dimension on the metal bird element work so well together, and the stitching and stamping is placed perfectly. It’s clean and simple, yet very detailed. I love this.

That is going to be it for this time and we’ll “see you next year”. My dad always used to tell us that on New Year’s Eve and we thought he was serious. It’s a funny memory now. So, “we’ll see you next year”. Be sure to join us right here for more Cheery-O Favorites in 2025.

As always, all of the layouts that are featured will be entered into a random drawing for a Gift Certificate to the Oscraps store! The winner of the November Cheery o’s Favorites is Tinekereinders! Congratulations!

Until next time, Happy New Year!
