I have found a fabulous scrapbook kit at Scrapjazz.com  Click the shopping tab and then go to Scrapjazz megastore under kits and under Hot off the press - Almost Done - Christmas 12x 12.   It has some great embellishments with it and it is super easy to put together.  If you want fast and simple pages this is the way to go.  Take a look.  I created 4 Christmas pages from this one kit.

Difficulty :  Simple layout

Time to Completion : < 1 hr.

Supplies Needed : 4 Photos, paper trimmer, adhesive

Step 1 : Page 1

Find the paper with the red bottom border and green holly/berry background.  This will be your base page.

Step 2

Take 2 photos and back them with the red plain paper and the dark green.  Matte them together and don't cut them apart.   Then place them on the red poinsetta paper and leave about 1/2 in. border.  Stick these down centered on the base page.

Step 3

Take the green season's greetings ribbon and stick it across the middle of the page covering the space in between the two photos.  Take one of the gold metal flowers and the gold brad and insert it on the ribbon, somewhere in between the words seasons greetings on the ribbon.  Take the large layered 4 pointed red and green sticker with the gold brad in the middle and place it to the left of the photos centered on the ribbon.

Step 4

Take the season's greetings sticker and place in on an angle on the upper left corner of the red matte.

Step 5

Cut out a dark green journal box and place a white or creme paper inside to journal on.  Mine is 2 1/2 in. by 4 in.  Take the small tag and stick it to the upper left corner of the journaling box.  I added a small white paper to the inside of the box to put the year on.

Step 6

Cut out some white/creme paper with your title on.  I used 4 white boxes backed with red or green for my title of: Twas the night before Christmas.  I put these on an angle across the top and bottom of the page.

Congratulations you have finished the first page.

Step 1 - Page 2

Find the paper that has a green holly/berry edge and red poinsetta base page.

Step 2

 Take 2 photos and matte them on the solid red paper and the solid green paper.  I gave mine a very small red matte and little bigger green matte.

Step 3

Find the 3 stickers needed.  The big red tag with the layered creme red and green diamond shapes.  The round red tag with the gold brad and Merry Christmas on it.  The layered creme and green and red square and diamond.  You will set them on the page so you can figure out where to stick down your pictures.  Take the creme,green,and red square/diamond and set it in the upper right corner where the red background meets the green border.  Take the red circle and set it in the lower right corner in the green border.  It will be under your title/jounal box.  Take the big red tag with the creme,green, and red square/diamond combo and  it will be centered in the upper left corner above the lower picture.

Step 4

With your stickers set in place figure out where you want your photos.  The upper photo in set off center to the right and the lower picture is off center to the left.  Remember to leave enough room to the bottom of the lower picture for the green ribbon.  You may want to set the ribbon in place before you stick down the lower picture.

Step 5

Take the green seasons greetings ribbon and cut a V in each end and center it in between the red area on the bottom of the paper.  Stick it in place.  Find the 2 gold flowers and 2 gold brads and place the brads in the middle of the flowers and poke a hole in the paper and place the brads in between the seasons greetings words on the ribbon.

Step 6

Create a journal/ title box.  The one on the sample is 3 1/2 in. by 7 1/4 in. matted in green holly paper and solid red paper.  I centered it on the left edge over the green border and red base page.  Remember to leave room for the red circle tag below the box.  I also put a creme circle for journaling along side of the lower photo.  

Congratulations you have finished 2 pages.  Step back and take a look at your fabulous Christmas pages.
