Halloween

This week our assignment was to make Halloween/Fall stuff.
This layout is of my family on Halloween last year. I used Echo Park Happy Halloween papers.

I found the pattern for this box at the Martha Stewart site and thought it would make cute halloween gifts. I used Happy Halloween on this too :)
If you decide to make them, I learned through trial and error that a spray adhesive is the best option for gluing the paper and cardstock together. The other ways left bubbles inside my box, but the spray adhesive left it smooth.

Its all about the paper

This week the Design Team was asked to make layouts using paper and cardstock only. This is how I usually scrap for the most part anyway, so it was right up my alley.
For this first layout I used the brand new Echo Park Merry Christmas paper. I seem to love everything that Echo Park puts out and their 2 new christmas lines are no exception. I made the flower out of the paper and cut the lettering out of cardstock on my cricut.

For this layout I thought the colors of the Bella Blvd. Hello Sunshine papers were perfect!

As always, thanks for stopping by!!

Layouts

Here are the layouts I made for this weeks upload at House of Paper.
For this first layout I used Lily Bee Lovely papers. I made the rose out of the paper. The bling is Zva, the hearts are Heidi Swapp. This is my oldest son when he was 3.5 years old. He was the ring bearer for his cousins wedding. I may still add journaling to this layout.

I used Echo Park Happy Halloween papers on this layout. This is my oldest son at a halloween party last year.
