Creepy layout

Hello and welcome back!

We recently replaced the carpet in one of our rooms and we decided to have a little fun after pulling out the old carpet, before the installer came.
He didn't say anything so maybe this is normal?

 

 

 I have a LOT of chipboard pieces on this layout.
One of my favs is the spider crawling up over the skull.
All of the details on are the Creative Embellishments blog.

Thanks for enjoying my favorite holiday with me!

Zombie layout

 Hello!
Today is my birthday and because Halloween is the BEST holiday, I have created another Halloween layout as a gift to myself.
Also, I LOVE how it turned out!!

I seriously had so much fun playing with this layout and adding detail after detail. All of the "how-to" info that you might be interested in is on the Creative Embellishments blog.

But check out this closeup of the zombie hands!
Totally my favorite piece on the whole layout.

When you remember that this is chipboard, so it starts off looking brown you really get how cool this turned out. I'm SO in love!!
Happy Birthday to me!

Thanks for coming by everyone!

Beware w/ Moxxie & Let's Get Sketchy

Did you know that Moxxie is sponsoring Let's Get Sketchy?

And I got to play along!

They gave us this sketch:

I used the awesome Zombie Attack line that Moxxie has donated to one of their lucky winners!

And this is what I made:

I am having SO much fun working with this line!!

First I played with this photo in photoshop, then I distressed the edges and used my scissors to make scratches on it.

As you can see I turned the sketch on its side to fit the orientation of my photo, then I layered papers and used the barcode strips to create the longest strip under the photo. Splash some mist on the layers for the fun, creepy look.

Layer stickers and outline them with a black pen to make them pop off the page.

I did a lot of distressing on all of my papers and then used a bark ink to "dirty" up the white edge that was revealed. Last I used this combination of stickers for my title area.

This line is AWESOME! You can play along with Let's Get Sketchy this month for a chance to win it AND you can join us on the Moxxie blog for another chance.

Thanks for stopping by!

Got Brains? w/ NAS and Moxxie

I have a really fun layout for you today!

I started with this sketch from Nuts About Sketches:

And this line from Moxxie. Check here for a chance to WIN!

 

And created this:

I seriously have so much fun making "blood" with ink. lol I may or may not have even giggled a little as I created this....

This wasn't even a Halloween photo, but my son has this Zombie shirt that he really loves. It reads: Zombies Eat Brains, don't worry, you're safe. My son would run around telling everyone "you don't have a brain!" Totally cracked me up and I wanted to document the memory. This photo of him at the fire house on a Pre-school field trip seemed perfect. He already had that zoned out look, he was wearing the shirt and I put the photo in photoshop and took out a bit of color to give him a bit of a pale look.

I stayed fairly close to the sketch, but added this zombie cut card instead of a photo.

Some popped up eyeballs, fun stickers and a bit of bling finish off the page.

You can WIN this line HERE.

Thanks for stopping by today!
