Scrapaholics Unite Session 7 Class 5

This was a combination of Jeepers Creepers from 2016 and the new Cats and Bats paper. I like the effect the black and white stripe make on the layout as well as the accenting of the monster paper. I used the Mini Monster cartridge for the Monsters title and the witches hat and accented with some glitter tape and a couple of halloween accent stamps.

Just in time for Halloween, I have made a spooky-cute layout. This is using the new Jeepers Creepers paper pack. I added some washi tape elements, along with some glitter tape and thick twine for some dimension. I played up the eyes on the paper by making eyes out of the O's in Boo for the title. I then finished it off with some cute stamped monsters and popped them up with 3D foam. I know it looks a little white right now, but once the pictures are on it, it will be spooktacular. If I remember, I will add my pics and update this post. 

Scrapaholics Unite Session 3 Class 2

I found these super cute 3D halloween stickers at Michaels the other day. They went really well with this layout that I had planned for halloween for this week. This layout is also versatile as a non-Halloween layout, just use some different embellishments and a different title. Each of the slate cardstock pieces are a mat for a picture. You can also use one of them for journaling. The right side of the page is for 2 3/4 x 2 3/4" photos. The left side holds 4 x 3" photos. 

DRCC Session 6 Class # 6

How is Halloween not the cutest holiday when you have a small child? I like this layout because it doesn't limit the placement of pictures, yet it gives structure to the layout. I used a Cricut to cut out the title and added some button brads and some mesh ribbon tied in a knot as well as some Washi tape to add some embellishment. I cut up the zip strip as it has Halloween words on it to use for journaling strips. 

DRCC Session 4 Class #6

I saw this layout and thought that the combination of the many patterned papers and the pennant design made this layout so interesting, yet so easy. It did make it a little bit harder to accessorize as I didn't want to make the layout even busier by over embellishing, so I decided to keep the 3D elements fairly simple, but spiced it up a bit with some heat embossing and striped stamping. This is an older paper pack from Making Memories called Spook Alley, but I paired it with CTMH card stock and inks.

I used black heat embossing to stamp these cute little pictures and this adorable saying, then I cut them out and adhered them with 3D foam tape.

To make the title striped, I first inked the word all over in the Sunset colour, if you are using different colours, stamp the lightest colour first. 

I then stamped a portion of the word using the very edge of the Smokey Plum ink pad or darker coloured ink. 

Then I stamped another stripe further up the stamp again, but held the lock with the stamp at an angle. 

I  repeated until I had a few stripes on my word stamp. 

Then I just stamped as normal on to the card stock.
