With Halloween just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to dive into a creative project that combines the spooky charm of Halloween and the art of scrapbooking. In this tutorial, I’ll guide you through the process of crafting a delightful “I Want Candy Halloween Scrapbook Layout” that’s sure to bring smiles and fond memories to your Halloween keepsakes.
Getting Inspired: The inspiration for this scrapbook layout came from a recent layout I was working on with a Holiday wreath and I thought let’s mash it up with , the enchanting “I Want Candy” collection, and cherished memories from a Halloween in 2003. As I stumbled upon old photos of my kids dressed as a Care Bear and an adorable puppy, the idea to incorporate these precious memories into a Halloween-themed scrapbook layout took shape.
Before we dive into the creative process, let’s gather the materials and supplies you’ll need for this scrapbooking project.

Creating the Scrapbook Layout: Now, let’s dive into the creative process:
- Step 1: Coloring the “I Want Candy” Stamp Set: I decided to use many different methods to colour my stamped images. I used the Tr-Blend marker that I listed above. But I also had some fun with paper piecing the images.
- Step 2: Assembling the Scrapbook Layout: I staryed by add the Sundance ink to the background. Then I add the thin cut spider webs. Next I decided where my photos where going to go. Then I had fun by decorating the wreath!
- Step 3: Adding the Nostalgic Touch: During the You Tube video I talk about how fun it was to walk down memory lane with these cute photos from 2003.
- Step 4: Final Touches and Presentation: You will noticed that I had added in the coloured images at diffeent height to create visual interest. There are also many different sizes of images, so I started with the largest down to the smallest.
