Hey everyone! Here is a new layout for Simple Stories using the faBOOlous Simple Vintage Scary Stories collection! I love Halloween collections, they are always so cute and fun!

I’ve used a large photo which is 4”x8” – quite a different size to what I’m used to using and I admit I did struggle to figure out a design that worked with it! I used black cardstock as my layout background and added a wide strip of orange cross-hatch paper. I paired this with two other patterns, a small polka dot and a black large circle print. I just used narrow strips of these additional two patterns on the right of the large orange block.

Over on the other side I used one of the chipboard frames as a layer. My photo was the wrong size to fit inside it, but I often use the frames as layers anyway so this worked well here.

For my title I used the October 31 title from the Foam Stickers. I also used lots of foam stars from the same pack.

I embellished the layouts with bats from the Bits & Pieces, and those cute ghosts too! I also used a few spiders, the Happy Haunting bunting and several Decorative Brads. 

I always enjoy using the phrase stickers from the Cardstock Stickers and used a few on this layout ‘spooky’ and ‘toil & trouble’.  I handwrote my journaling to the right of the photo and finished off with a few splatters of gold paint and Enamel Dots!

I hope you enjoyed this layout, I loved making it! Happy haunting!
