Boo To You | Legendary/Boys Rule Collections | Kylie Kingham.

Hi friends! It’s Kylie back with you again with a super fun layout to share. For my family here in Oz we don’t usually recognise Halloween when it swings around, however I have lots of cute photos from when my kids were in Primary School that fit a Halloween theme. Sometimes they had a Halloween disco or dress up and I love documenting these photos. Recently I fell down a rabbit hole (**another), with layered 3D cut files. I really do love trying new things and today I wanted to share a layout I created featuring a Halloween themed wreath which has been designed by Layered Craft on Etsy. I knew I wanted to use mostly an Orange, Black and a hint of Green palette for my page so decided to combine both the ‘Legendary’ and ‘Boys Rule’ collections…..and I love how it turned out!

So let’s chat about these layered cut files. Each layer of the design is different and builds upon the next to create a 3D layered result when completed. The pro’s- You get to create a really unique layout! The downside….(And this didn’t really bother me), You use a fair amount of your paper supply. That being said I included a layer of white cardstock to save my creative papers. Once each layer was cut out it was time for assembly. I have adhered each layer with thin foam adhesive squares. You don’t necessarily have to, but I really wanted a dimensional 3D effect for my page. This style would be perfect for framing! I had five layers for this wreath and I really love seeing each individual colour peeping through.

With my wreath together I needed to prepare the background page. I used some black cardstock as the very base and trimmed the grey ‘ALL STAR’ paper from the LEGENDARY collection down to 11.5″x 11.5″. This was adhered centred over the black cardstock so a nice even border was revealed. I used a black journal pen to draw a freehand border around the edges. Next using double sided tape, I added my wreath centred on the page.

My photo was printed to a 3″x 4″ size twice. A black cardstock photo mat which I trimmed to 3.25″x 4.25″, was added to both before I layered them together over my wreath. I added a few simple embellishments to support my photos as well as some phrase stickers. I felt as though the background was a little bare so using a star punch from my stash, I punched several from the same papers in my wreath and scattered them diagonally across the page. I also added in some of the ‘LEGENDARY’ enamel dots.

Of course I needed a main title and you all know I love them BIG! I used some sparkly gold alpha stickers again from my stash for a little glitter!

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today. I hope you enjoyed reading and seeing how my page came together. Happy scrapping!
