Tips for adding ephemera, which can be seen in the layouts:
1. cluster the pieces together, and layer them on top of each other
2. use tags for creating a decorative element, for journaling, for titling, or for a photo mat to hold photos 3. use sayings for titling or small journaling
4. create a card front to add to page as a decorative element or to use as the title
5. make cards similar to the card packs that SU has, and use for decorative element or flip flap insert
Ways to use:
1. as is, simply add to page. NOTE - these pieces can seem "flat" on a page, so use Dimensionals generously
2. trim only what you want to use NOTE - I used the piece that said "Wishing You a Christmas Full of Peace and Wonder" and cut off "Wishing You a", and trimmed the tag that has a Christmas tree on it and just used the tree
3. add Wink of Stella, Enamel Effects, ribbon and twine, or embellishments
* It may be easier to start with Frames & Flowers Specialty DSP or A Little Bit Festive Specialty DSP when learning to use ephemera, as the ephemera die cut sheets coordinate with the papers
