Christmas Collage Mixed Media Tags for Tres Jolie Kit Club

Hi everyone, 

Have you seen the new 2025 November Mixed Media Kit? Well I am about to share with you a few awesome techniques and fun ways to learn how to use these Distress Mica Sprays along with the Collage Medium and Collage papers inside the kit. I have the links down below as well as the step by step tutorial and video tutorial which always provides more details. I hope this brings you some inspiration. 

2025 November Mixed Media Kit

To start off we will be creating 4 tags. I will cover 2 tags with clear gesso. 

TAG 1:

For the first tag without Gesso place the collage medium down and spread all over the tag.

Next tear a piece of the collage papers, which ever you decide, place it down on top of the collage medium we just spread about the tag. 

Next using the Distress Mica Sprays and spritz on the tag. Let set and dry for a minute. Once its been a minute you can dry with the heat tool but not very close. 

I then tore another collage paper with the tree and adhered that on top of the tag using the collage medium. Again let set and dry for a minute. you can air dry for a few minutes, then come in and use a heat tool very lightly across the tag. 

Next I added the presents I fussy cut out from the 2025 November Card Kit, then used the little boy from my stash. I added the phrase across the top used from the present cut apart card. I also added some perfect pearls around the top and sides of the tag using my figure to lightly spread around. 

TAG 2:

For the second tag use a stencil in the tag that has gesso. 

Lay the stencil across the tag and spray the Distress Mica Sprays across the top.

Then spread collage medium across the top once the sprays are dried. then lay down the collage image down and gently rub down till the paper is completely adhered.

Once you lay down the collage paper put some collage medium on a brush and spread around the top of the image. You can spray a little more mica spray around the tag if you want more color on top.

TAG 3:

Tag three spread down the collage medium, then place down the collage paper image and spread the collage medium down on top.

Next spray the distress mica sprays across the top again. 

I used a chipboard window from a previous kit and added the holly berries through the window. I used versa mark around the white berries and then used my figures to add in the perfect pearls. I adhered down the down to the tag. 

TAG 4:

 For tag 4 I grabbed my distress crayons from the 2023 October Mixed Media Kit. I used the green and gold to color in my collage paper image.

Next spray the last tag with green distress mica spray all around the tag. Let the tag set and dry for a minute. 

Next place the colored image on top and use a small brush to add on the collage medium around the image. 

I did use the red distress mica spray to color the berries on the image and I also added some splatters. 

But here is another idea. You can add the pretty white holly berries from the Mixed Media Kit on top of the berries and adhere down. I also added some idea-ology sticker boarders to the top and bottom. 

Here are the 4 tags below that are all finished. You can always check out the video tutorial for more details on how I created these Christmas Tags using the Collage papers and Collage Medium  along with the Distress Mica Sprays.

Simple Fall Home Decor for Tres Jolie Kit Club

 Hi everyone,

Today I have another simple Fall idea for you, its a simple Home Decor for Fall. All you need is some twine or think twine, two cutting boards (bamboo cutting boards), which I got from the Dollar Tree and your 2025 October Scrapbooking Kit. I think you will like the simplicity of this and you can make it in a day. I hope you enjoy the step by step tutorial and I have the video process down below for more details. I have all the links down below for you. Sit back and Enjoy!

2025 October Scrapbooking Kit Wooden Stacked pumpkin

         

To create this wonderful Fall Home Decor you will need some thick twine, 2 bamboo cutting boards from the dollar tree and the 2025 October Scrapbook kit. I also am bringing in a beautiful wooden stacked pumpkin found in the shop. We will be using the Mixed Media pearl inks on this beautiful piece. 

Here is the thick twine I will be using as my hanger. 

First pick out what images you would like on the front you cutting boards and adhere them down

Next add your ephemera or bits and pieces. Below I used ephemera, cut apart cards and stickers. I did cut off the white boards from the pumpkins. For the cut apart card I used my distress tool on the edges and then I inked the edges in brown. 

After I was done decorating the top I used Frabi-Tac Glue to adhere the thick twine. Place the glue on the board, place the twine on top and hold down for a bit til it sticks and wait for it to dry.  Do this for the top and bottom on the back of the board. 

Now we are going to use the inks from the 2025 October Mixed Media Kit. I just love how this turned out. I used the sponge applicators as ink dabbers to place the green and gold/yellow on the wooden pumpkin, this worked out really well. 

Next cover and decorate the second cutting board. I did place some foam tape behind the "Thankful".

Next I grabbed some paint and used this to paint the edges of the cutting board, this paint is from a previous Mixed Media Kit. I added brush strokes throughout the front of the board. ***************For more detail view Video Tutorial******

Next I adhered the twine to the back of the second cutting board just like I did the top one. Make sure both boards line up evenly while adhering down the twine.

Press the twine in the glue and let dry.

I am just loving how these cutting board look. How fun are these to hang for the Fall season. So festive and colorful. 

Here is the finished set hung up in my hallway. I just love this project, super simple and done in a few minutes. 

I hope you enjoyed today's step by step tutorial and Please check out the video tutorial for more details. I hope you found some inspiration from this fun and simple Fall Home Decor project. I know I had fun creating this for the Fall Season.

Autumn Folio using 2025 October Scrapbook Kit

 Hi everyone,

Today I have a simple Autumn Folio for you using the 2025 October Scrapbook Kit. You will like the simplicity of this and you can make it in a day. I hope you enjoy the step by step and video tutorial. You can always view the video tutorial for more details. I have all the links down below for you. Happy Crafting.

 

2025 October Scrapbooking Kit

To start you will need to cut out cardstock, I used black cardstock. 

1 - 6 1/4 x7, Score 1 inch on the left side; 1- 5 1/2 x 7, Score 1 inch on the right side; 1- 11 x 7 inches, Score 1 inch on both ends as this larger piece is the back of our folio.

Add adhesive to the 1 inch flaps we just scored on the 11 x 7 inch cardstock piece. 

Next take the first door on the left side and adhere down to the larger piece with the adhesive on it, then do the same on the other side. 

Next add 3 magnets down on the door on the left side and 3 magnets on the door on the right side. ************Please view Video tutorial for more details**********************

Next I placed double back tape over all three magnets. Now you can paper the inside and outside of the folio using the 2025 October Scrapbook pattern paper from Simple Stories. 

Next cut a piece of cardstock at 8 1/2 x 6 inches and score 6 times at 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, 2, 2 1/2, 3 inches. Cut out 6 - 4 x 6 photo mats. 

Next turn over the 8 1/2 x 6 piece and fold down the first scored area, place glue down and then adhere the 4 x 6 photo mat down on top of the flap. Next fold down the second area and do the same thing by adhering down the 4 x 6 photo mat and continue this til you have adhered all 6 - 4 x 6 photo mats down.

*************View Video Tutorial for more details****************************************

So now once you are down adhering on the 4 x 6 photo mats you can cover the back. Now it will be shorter than what we need so I am going to share a little tip if this happens to you. Just place a pattern paper that is about 1 inch longer than the last 4 x 6 photo mat. which is measured at 7 x 6 inches. 

**************************View Video Tutorial for more details*****************************

Next cut a 1 x 7 inch strip and this going to be adhered on top of the back of the waterfall, which is under the last photo mat. 

Now adhere down only the ends of the strip while the strip lays across back of the waterfall. 

I covered the black strip with some pattern paper from my scrap pile. Now add glue to the top of the strip and adhere down the bottom of the last 4x6 photo mat.  

**************************View Video Tutorial for more details*****************************

Now we will create two smaller pulldown/reverse waterfalls. Cut cardstock at 4 x 12, score both at 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, 2  and cut 8 photo mats at 3 1/2 x 4 inches. 

Next turn over the 4 x 12 piece and fold down the first scored area, place glue down and then adhere the 4 x 3 1/2 photo mat down on top of the flap. Next fold down the second area and do the same thing by adhering down the 4 x 3 1/2 photo mat and continue this til you have adhered all 8 - 4 x 3 1/2 photo mats down.

*************View Video Tutorial for more details****************************************

Next cut two pieces of card stock at 1 x 7, you will again place this strip under the last photo mat on top of the back of the waterfall. Adhere down the ends to each side of the waterfall. You can also paper the back of the waterfall before adhering it down like we did the larger piece. Follow the same directions for the other side of the waterfall. 

*************View Video Tutorial for more details****************************************

Here is the close up of the Pull Down Waterfall that is on the right hand side of the Folio. I adhered a little cut apart card to the front for journaling to write down a date and other fun things regarding the photos inside. I also used the little tags from the cut apart sheet to use as the pull down tabs. 

Here is the second Pull Down Waterfall that is adhered to the left side of the folio. I added this little hedgehog image for journaling as well and the bottom has the other little tabs below for pulling down the waterfall. 

Here is the middle Pull Down Waterfall, but this will be pulled to the right side instead of downward. I only covered the front and also placed another journal card for adding dates, and jotting down other memories you have from the special moments.
