Hi everyone! I have a new layout to share today for Bella Blvd. This week is Sketch week using Monsters & Friends – I love this collection and Halloween is my favourite thing to scrap!
The sketch
has three photo blocks on it. I had two photos so for the third one I went
looking for items from the Monsters & Friends Cut Apart sheets to use. I
found a great square which contains three monsters and the phrase ‘night squad’.
This was perfect for my third block.
I used an
orange print paper from Monsters & Friends for my background, it has
tone-on-tone stars on it and is just fabulous! I trimmed it down and distressed
the edges and stuck it to a black background. I added my photo blocks and a
strip of black & white polka dot paper, as represented by the sketch.
I then went
looking for items to add to the embellishment clusters. I used two 2” squares
from the cut-apart sheet and then added embellishments, for example a chipboard
ghost and several flowers from the Ephemera.
For my title
I wanted to use the Halloween chipboard title but it got lost in the dots of
the background paper. To get around this I mounted it first onto a sheet of
white Freehand Graph Bella Besties paper from the Monsters & Friends
coordinating Bella Besties pack. I trimmed around it so it had a border and
this helped it to stand out against the dots perfectly.
I added
machine stitching through my title and around the edge of the layout. I also
added black splatters of paint and handwrote my journaling. I finished off with
some enamel stars.
