Get ready for some boo-tiful Halloween crafting! In today’s blog post, I’m excited to share the latest layout in my Festive Season series — but with a spooky twist! 🕸️ This Halloween-themed layout is full of fun, eerie details, and I’m especially excited about the focus on tag dies, which add the perfect touch of ghostly charm.
Supplies I Used:
- Paper: Halloween Spells 12×12 DSP, White Glimmer Paper, Peach Pie Glimmer Paper
- Cardstock: Black, Pool Party, Gorgeous Grape, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Grey
- Blends: Smokey Slate, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight
- Stamps: Potions & Spells, Halloween Memories
- Ink: Memento Black, Smokey Grey, Pumpkin Pie, Gorgeous Grape
- Dies: Perennial Postage Dies, Greeting of the Season Dies (for those perfect tags!)
- Embellishments: Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack, Glossy Dots Assortment, Iridescent Adhesive-Backed Discs
- Other: Blending Brushes, Forever Plaid Embossing Folder
These supplies helped me capture the magic of Halloween, from the glowing orange and purple tones to the textured layers of glimmer and patterned paper. 🎃✨ The Perennial Postage Dies and Greeting of the Season Dies were especially fun to use for creating unique Halloween tags that really stand out!
Tips for a Spook-tacular Layout:
- Don’t be afraid to mix colors like Pumpkin Pie and Gorgeous Grape for an extra pop of spooky fun!
- Use your Blending Brushes to soften the edges of your tags and background paper, giving your layout that misty, haunted look.
- Play with the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder to add texture and depth to your layers — the subtle pattern works great with Halloween themes!
