Mad about Plaid

It's a cold day here in west Texas, a perfect day to cuddle up under a warm blanket in front of a toasty fire. But, since that isn't on the agenda for today I might settle for some hot chocolate and catching up on the blog here ☺

Today I am sharing my first project created with the Home Sweet Home Classic kit, and since it's Plaid week here at Noel Mignon, I have a plaid layout to share with you. This kit is still available in the shop so head on over to purchase yours!

I started out with a corner piece of this fantastic plaid paper. This sheet is one that caught my eye when I first went through my kit. I know it might seem weird but when I go through the papers I stack together the ones that I like the most and make sure to use those on my projects. This was one of my favorites. I then added some strips of other patterned papers and a piece of the ribbon from the kit. 

Can I share a tip? Since the patterned paper isn't wide enough for the paper strips to go all the way across the paper diagonally I simply cut them in half since the middle would be hidden by the photo anyway.

I added lots of chipboard pieces and some of those cute rub-ons along with a mix of the alphas and word stickers in the kit. 

Have a fantastic day!
