Step by step

1. 

   Select a 12x12 inch piece of patterned paper from your collection as the base for your scrapbook page. Choose a design that complements your theme - this example uses a floral pattern with white flowers and grey foliage.

2. 

   Take one of the pre-made topper panels from the collection. Using an ink pad, carefully add ink around the edges of the panel to create definition and depth.

3. 

   Adhere a decorative panel with festive foliage and pinecone design to your scrapbook page. Mount your chosen photo in the centre of the panel using a red glitter frame mat.

4. 

   Cut out individual animal toppers from the kit to use separately from their mounts. Carefully trim around each character image to separate them from the decorative frames.

5. 

   Arrange your topper elements around the page to decide on placement before adhering. Position the decorative rabbits, photo frames, and other embellishments where you want them to sit on your layout.

6. 

   Add the decorative banner sentiments to your cards. Position 'Deck the Halls' on the top left card with the photo, and 'Season's Greetings' on the bottom right card with the candles image.

7. 

   Adhere all the decorative elements to your scrapbook page using foam pads to create dimension. Position the 'Deck the Halls' banner at the top of the photo frame, the 'Season's Greetings' banner on the candles card, and secure the squirrel family and robin toppers in their chosen positions.

Tips from the show

• You don't have to use the kit exactly as intended—you can create your own designs using the components in different ways.
• The topper mounts have a centralised panel ready to mount, but you can cut elements away and use them independently if you prefer.
