A Halloween layout

Firstly, have a look over there to the right.  See that new badge there?  I am very proud of my first design team logo!  My kit came yesterday and I dived straight in, in a mixture of fear and excitement!  I'll be sharing my DT layouts in a few days.

Now, do you know, I don't think I've ever done a Halloween layout before!  I bought a lot of themed stuff in the 2Peas sale last year but here in good old Blighty we don't seem to celebrate with quite the same vigour as our American friends.  Shame really as I love the colours!

I used Shimelle's Starting Point from last Saturday to get me started but I found the busy papers quite tricky to work with.  I broke open my Tim Holtz embossing folder which helped to give the eye somewhere to rest.

L is supposed to be a scary Vampire and B is a cat but they look so cute, hence the title.


The papers and letters etc came from a set by We R Memory Keepers and I have rather a lot left but it was fun to break the open.

See those little green hearts there on the wording strip?  I think they were one of the first things I bought when I was interested in scrapbooking but didn't actually do any, about 4 years ago!  I've actually been scrapbooking about 2 years now but I have stash that is MUCH older!  Hopefully I'll use some more of that up with Shimelle's new class that starts soon that I signed up for yesterday.  Look out for the announcement on her website soon.

Bye for now xx

    Cute page..I have loads of halloween stash x I too have lots of stash I bought when I first started to scrapbook but my style has changes and I hate to admit I have become a bit of a scrapbooking snob and look back at those bits and think I would never use that now? I to have signed up for Shimelles class so maybe it will finally make it out of the draw,
