| The Mad Hatter! |
Another reason I know it's October is because there is a new Sketchy Challenge over at Canadian Scrapbooker! Woohoooo!
Jill Sarginson designed a fabulous sketch once again...
 |
| Every Halloween I take a photo of the Jack O'Lanterns my kids carve :) |
The black background patterned paper and the pumpkin patch are from the new FancyPants "Oct 31" collection....
Confession time....I had this layout design sketched for last year's Halloween! EEEEK!! Now that's scary! I even had altered that Dusty Attic tree and printed out the vintage seed packet from Graphics Fairy. Better late than never, I guess ;)

My sweet scrappy friend from Newfoundland had sent me that border punch awhile ago (edging the brown Basic Grey strip) and she very kindly gave me that gorgeous yellow moon paper, which is Basic Grey "Curio." I barely had to ink the edges, it has such perfect shading on it...thanks Michelle!
The "Boo" chipboard title and bat is from an older Basic Grey Halloween collection, which I believe is called "Eerie." I picked it up in a sale bin last year ...yay!
 |
| Love this set of Basic Grey chipboard stickers! |
I used 3 different dies for the leaves and vines, plus stamped more leaves with a Magenta stamp and cut them out...
 |
| I used 2 shades of Distress Ink: Peeled Paint (dark) and Crushed Olive (yellow-green). |
 |
| I added a little shading to the pumpkins and leaves with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. |

Jeez..aren't I a great friend hahah. Now you've inspired me and I must get my ar....errr...butt in gear and get something posted to the sketchy challenge!
ReplyDeleteI totally love your layout! So many fun details!
ReplyDeleteWow wee! First, I LOVE babyofthefamily's costume from last year. I wonder if you had her dress that way just so you could scrap her.....? She perfect for that Graphic 45 Alice line. Please tell me you did! Secondly, oh my word, your page! That spooky tree and the big moon are the BEST! Love it, love it! A perfect Halloween page.
ReplyDeleteLove all the foliage and leaves in your sketch layout-you layered them up fabulously! I love seeing your dark side come to life! I also love your little Mad Hatter up top, she looked amazing. I wish she could realize that she will have so much more fun being original and creative than just another pretty face, but unfortunately the world seems to be making our little girls feel that way at a younger and younger age. Hope you guys have a hauntingly fun Halloween!
ReplyDeleteGreat design, Kelly!....and YES, I still love that picture of your DD! You really did rock the diecuts and make them work for you, Girlfriend! Super job with the design and all the wonderful embellies that you made! AMAZING!!!
ReplyDeleteSo, who says we have to scrap chronologically .. or on time? LOL Fabulous page .. and the design was certainly worth keeping! Love that DA tree .. gonna have to get one of those! Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a VERY cool Halloween page! You created the night scene from It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown...complete with the great big pumpkins! Linus would be right at home here. The DA tree against the large moon...it just all works together perfectly...love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a marvelously cool, festive, engaging Halloween page! That costume that your daughter is sporting is nothing shy of amazing, too!
ReplyDeleteOodles of hugs,
Jessica
