LeNae's Tip: The vintage feel of the papers works well with the brown paper cover of the album. Use black ink on the edges of the paper to add dimension and a clean edge.

Supplies:

• Sara's Surfaces™ 8"x8" Album
• Busy Scrapper's Solution Christmas Papers
• Poinsettia Silk Flowers
• Gold Mini Round Brads
• StazOn Ink Pad, Jet Black

Instructions:

1. Remove the posts from the album. Cut three 1 wide strips of green floral paper and ink the edges black. Glue a strip to each side of the album binding.
2. Cut an 8 1/2 square of burgundy floral and green floral and ink the edges black. Glue the green square to the back album cover. Glue the Merry Christmas border 3/4 from the left side of the burgundy border.
3. Layer 2 burgundy poinsettias with an ivory flower on top. Secure to the top of the border with a brad. Glue the burgundy floral square to the album front cover.
4. Foam tape the candy cane/poinsettia tag to the green tag and secure a brad to the top of the tag. Hang the tag from under the silk poinsettia and glue to the right of the flowers.
