Merry and Bright Quick Page

About this freebie

The Merry and Bright Quick Page gives you a fast start on your holiday albums. This free Christmas download features a classic plaid background in cranberry, pine, and gold. It includes a decorative bow and 1 large landscape photo hole to showcase your favorite memory. The file is a 12 x 12 inch PNG at 300 dpi. The preview shows illustrated sample photos, but your downloaded file has a transparent hole. It is perfect for framing a family portrait or a festive group shot.

Ideas for using it

1. Frame an 8.8 x 5.8 inch landscape family portrait from your holiday dinner against the deep green and cranberry plaid background.
2. Use the large photo hole to highlight a festive group shot of the kids playing in the snow. The cream and gold accents will complement bright winter photos.
3. Print your finished layout to create a custom holiday card. The classic plaid and bow design works perfectly for greetings you give away or sell.

How to use it

• If you are new to this format, read our guide on how to use quick pages to learn about placing photos under the PNG layer.
• The downloaded ZIP file is about 11.9 MB. You will need to extract the PNG file before you can open it in your image editing software.
• Scale your landscape photo to fit the 8.8 x 5.8 inch transparent opening. Place the photo layer directly below the quick page layer in your software.
• Put your photo on a layer under the quick page and move it until it shows through the hole.
• Keep the quick page as PNG while you work so the holes stay transparent.
