Octagon Shaped Blank Christmas Topper with Stars/snowflakes9Completed by Margaret Swaby

I used this frame for a scrapbook page for my daughter from their holiday in Lapland , last Christmas. I printed off the frame to A4 size onto photo paper to give it a glossy look.

I then placed it over the top of a sheet of gold glitter paper and cut around it. I took a yellow background sheet, I then tore a corner shaped piece from a sheet of dark blue glitter card and a smaller one from a different yellow sheet to make the circles in the right bottom corner.

I stuck the gold octagon onto the page and then cut the photograph into a circle and stuck it onto the frame.

I then stuck on the frame, slightly offset from the gold octagon. I used fancy dark blue ribbon down the left hand side and wrote the journaling onto some pale blue paper and stuck it onto the top right hand corner.

This is a very versatile sheet that could be used to make an octagonal shaped card. Use it to make a personalised ocard with a photo in the centre or just with an enbellishment in there.
