Okay, true confession, I love Halloween! I've said this many a time and each year I find myself enjoying it more and more! I really enjoy the decorations, the colors, theme...and the fact that it's okay not to dust is even better. For something different in addition to the many photos I take of the kids, I thought it would be fun to take pictures of all the goodies around our house. I chose a few of my favorites for this layout and now think I'll do the same again at Christmas. Read on to go through the steps to create this layout!
Cut the kraft edge border off the Spider Web paper. Then adhere the paper onto a piece of orange cardstock. Ink the edges of the orange cardstock with black ink to dirty it up a bit.
For my photos I worked with a digital photo template I purchased online. Once I added my photos, I printed the sheet out and trimmed off the excess photo paper.
Cut a piece from the Halloween Journal Tags paper that measures 7" by 9 ½". I used my sewing machine to stitch a crazy zigzag stitch onto the paper edge. If you don't have a machine, consider using some rub-ons. After stitching ink the edges with black ink.
Next cut a strip from the Halloween Journal Tags paper that measures 3" by 12". Ink the edges with both brown and black inks. Adhere onto the spider web paper above the Happy Halloween design. Again, if you have a machine, add the zigzag stitch to the edges.
Now adhere the black wavy print paper along with the photo collage.
Cut phrases from the Spooky Words paper. Ink the edges and staple to the side of the paper. Add the Making Memories clear frame over a "creepy" cut-out word.
