Hello friends! It’s Kylie with you today and I have a fun new layout I have created to share. Even though we don’t really recognise Halloween here at home, I had some photos of some Halloween fun at school I wanted to scrapbook. The main focus of my page is a cute cut file which has been designed by Paige Evans. The “LEGENDARY’ collection was my choice for this page as the colour scheme was perfect for what I had in mind.

The ‘OUTDOORS TYPE’ paper was chosen for my background. I love the depth of colour and the woodgrain look it has. Once I had cut out my cut file, I began the process of backing each section piece by piece. Rose Gold and Black glitter cardstock from my stash were used on the facial features.For dimension I adhered the cut file to my page using foam adhesive squares.

For a little added texture on my background I tore into the top of my page and added some of the ‘EPIC TALES’ paper in behind.

My photo was trimmed to 5.75″x 3.75″ and backed with a 6″x 4″ piece of paper. It too was adhered with foam adhesive squares. This also allowed me to tuck some of the star die cuts in underneath both the photo and the cut file. I created a title to correspond with the pages theme from the large title die cut pack and also added some of the typed phrase stickers below.

I really hope you have enjoyed seeing my ‘SPOOK-TACULAR’ themed page today on the blog.I have also filmed a short process video for you to watch.

Perhaps it gives you inspiration for your own scrapbooking layouts. Until next time,

Kylie .

Hi Cocoa Vanilla friends!

It’s Tarrah back with you and today I am sharing a Halloween layout created for the October mid month challenge over at CSI: Colour, Stories, Inspiration I used lots of the boy collections on this layout!

CSI: Colour, Stories, Inspiration Case File No. 298

I took inspiration from the skull and cross bones design in the image and also the colours. I cut out a skull and cross bone design from black cardstock using my Silhouette Cameo and used is one of the main focal points on my layout. I popped up the skull using craft foam and adhered the cross bones flat to the page. In the eyes of the skull, I backed one of them with one of the paper s from the You Rock collection and added one of the woodies from the Totally Rad collection to the other eye. The Totally Rad collection has lots of pieces with the skull and crossbones so I pulled out what I had left and used them as embellishments. The large white and black skull and cross bones was fussy cut from the ‘Stuff’ paper from the Boys Rule collection The photo is of my eldest son dressed up for Halloween as a zombie a couple of years ago. I just had to add the ‘Admit One Crazy Town ticket and the unbelievable sticker’as they went perfectly with the theme of my layout. I added some of the wood veneer stars from the Flying High collection – I couldn’t believe I still had these! To finish off, I added the chippie crown in the chipboard pieces pack from the Boys Rule collection and added a few last bits and pieces like the arrows, the star flair, the date stamp and some splatters of black mist.
