Wicked-ly Cute with Printable Cuttable Creatables

Hello Printable Cuttable Creatables fans and Scrapping For Tranquility Fans!  I want to share with you a fun and Wickedly Cute layout I did for my granddaughters 9 month old photos.  Her mother is about all things Halloween and fall.  In fact my granddaughter's name is Oktober!  Teehee.  Here is my layout:


Now, to step back a little, I talked about last month about chatting with you and adding pattern paper to your layouts.    Here is a prime example.



I looked at my photos and decided on the colors I was using for my paper piecings and my background paper.  Once I had my background paper chosen, I pick anywhere from 2 to 3 other solids in case I want to make mats or need them for highlights as in edging ect.  That will be my color pallet.  Here I chose Green, Purple and orange.  Once I had that main color pallet in my solids I pick one or 2 pattern papers in that color family.  Most of the time only one pattern paper will do but I always choose 2 just in case.


That is when I start playing with my cardstock and pictures to decide my layout and how I want it.  My layout above is a fall back layout I use for a lot of my photos.  I start with a hilly ground (which it doesn't have to be green, use your imagination!)  Then I use my pattern cardstock to go up from the solid about 1 1/2 inches more.  A lot of the time my background paper is not a solid but a small print to set the layout off.  For Example, polka dots, flowers, ect.   This is a Beautiful purple shade from 12x12 Cardstock Shop.  The best place to get all your solid American Crafts and Bazzill cardstock. The top of the page for the "sky", I chose the polka dots that matched the stripes and the rest of my solids.  I really liked how my prints and solids worked together.


My Pieces I chose from Printable Cuttable Creatables was the Cute Witch and Friends Halloween SVG Set.  It is just darling.  I made everything in the set but 3 pumpkins.  I really thought it said everything I wanted it to say for my photos.



The Vampire bat and moon is just so realistic looking but cute at the same time along with the cat and cauldron.


Mr Cat could be made to look scary or just as cute as  can be.  I Love the bubbles and steam coming out of the pot!  Now how fun is that?







I just loved the spider and web and even if you are not a huge fan of spiders, she is so cute, you can't pass her up! 



 Now,  this little witch...... she is the most darling little witch I have ever seen!  Besides my granddaughter!  LOL


This title is so adorable and I could of thought of a million and one things to do with it.  I just liked the way it was and used it.

I hope you enjoyed this small tutorial on how to use your pattern paper and my layout.  Leave me a message I would love to hear from you and your thoughts.  Stop by my blog for I will be having some giveaways soon but you have to be a follower!
