A little Halloween page to share

halloween spider 2

Here I made up a Halloween themed 12 x 12 Scrapbook page. I used some cute background paper… do you see the little ghosts? :D Otherwise there is a lot of spider webs and Prima flowers. You can see more of this layout HERE.

The candy corns glitter, the light green gems in the title set off the green flowers and green here and there. Main colors include purple, orange and black. Whimsical spiders (not too scary) as accents on torn mats. Well, paper flowers are not too scary either, but I just have to have them on everything, you know how I feel, right?

The orange patterned buttons are really fun to make up! They start out as bare chipboard and I covered them with paper from my stash of Basic Grey Ambrosia, sanded the edges then inked them, and I was ready to add my bakers twine and glue to the layout! Really fun and easy!

I bought these bare chipboard buttons from the shop SpectacularStuff on Etsy. She hand die cuts all of her chipboard shapes, and is so nice to work with on custom orders! Let’s just say… she is very sweet, and fast with cutting all the different shapes and shipping. The quality is perfect on these shapes! Is there not a better way to help your creativity than to start with quality supplies? I just want one of everything in her shop! :) I'm almost there... hee hee.

Thank you for stopping by! Have a joyful, creative day!

  1. Such a cute/fun layout! I REALLY like the colors that you chose. I think that my favorite touch is the tiny candy corn in the lower right-hand corner.

    I'm glad that you have posted this... I think that you should showcase some more of your creations. :)
