Candy Corn Cutie

Hello!  Christi here from Scrapping For Tranquility.  I want to share a one page layout with you I did using a couple fun files from Printable Cuttable Creatables.


All my cardstock came from 12 x 12 Cardstock Shop.  I feel they have the best Varity of American Crafts and Bazzill Lines (along with a lot of others) and these are the ones I use for my pieces.

I started with a Bazzill black piece but my camera wants to make it look brownish.   As we talked about on my last tutorial, I used the black as my base, to find a couple other solids, to go with my base and then I  found my pattern papers to match.  


PCC has a cute little title called Candy Corn Cutie and it is a FREE file!!!!  I thought this would be another awesome title for my 9 month old granddaughters Halloween photos.  In some of these photos she is learning to crawl so I wanted to add Crawling to the title.  Here is how it came out:



What I did and how I did it was I took the shadow of Candy Corn Cutie and as close as I could, I added the word Crawling.  I made sure to weld Crawling together.  Then I grouped the whole shadow and Crawling together welded them and made the whole thing into a shadow.  Copied it, pasted it and made the second shadow and copied the second shadow , pasted it and made the third shadow.

Going back, I started with the word Crawling, I typed the word again so it could go on top of my shadows and my Candy Corn and there you have it.  Now This was all done on my Cameo 3.  It might be a bit different on your Cricut Maker for I do not have that machine.  I know on the old Cricut it was the same.  If you have any questions, feel free to message me and I will be happy to help.

Moving on, 


I thought it needed just a bit more under the pictures so I added the Halloween Treats Banners Borders Set which included this wonderful Candy Corn border.  I think it added the right touch.



Here is the finished product once again.  What do you think?

Simply Boo tiful

Happy, Happy Tuesday Printable Cuttable Creatables.com Fans!  Christi here from Scrapping For Tranquility!  I am bring you this week a real fun a Boo-tiful layout featuring my youngest granddaughter's 9 month Halloween photos.  With Halloween right around the corner, I thought this would be perfect to show off some of our awesome Halloween files!



I was very happy with the layout.  I think I should of made my title a bit bigger but, we all can't hit it out of the park all the time! HAHA!



For the title I used the File Simply Beautiful.  I thought it came out adorable!  Perfect for my pictures!




I'm not usually a fan of cutting my photos in half like this but it just seem to call for it, this time.  I am glad I did it and feel it came out really well.



For the Pumpkins on the layout, I used the file Autumn Harvest and used the gourds to make into the same shaped pumpkins in my photos.  I took and made an extra ghost from the Simply Boo-tiful file and stuck him behind the pumpkin to be appearing as he was peeking around it.





The right side of my layout I used the title Boo-tiful and added Baby Girl to make the sub title.  (we call her baby girl a lot of the time)


My Last pumpkin was just like the last from Autumn Harvest.



If you notice the journaling spot, I want to tell you how I do this.  I always make a journal spot on my layouts where you can see it or not.  If the pictures has to do with my husband and I doing activities with my grandchildren, then I will journal.  If it doesn't, I leave it blank so their mothers can fill in the journaling spot for them since they made the memories with them.  This works well for our family.  Just another idea for you to think about!  

Let me know what you think, leave me a comment and let me know what you think!
