For the Circle Monthly Challenge, I created the following 2 page layout.
Here is page 1.
Here is page 2.
The cardstock used for the background is from The Paper Loft's Halloween Distressed Cardstock Scary line - Hocus Pocus. All other cardstock is Bazzill that I've had in my stash. All of the cuts are from the Happy Hauntings Cricut cartridge, and I used my E2 and Gypsy to make them.
For the title, I used the Phrase function for Halloween (the phrase was actually Happy Halloween, but I used Hide & Contour to hide Happy) and cut it at a height of 2 inches, and used the Vampire Font function to cut 2003 at a height of 3/4 of an inch. I didn't take a picture of my screen or mat with the paper laid out for this.
The Witch was cut at a height of 3 inches and the Bat was cut at a height of 1 3/4 inches. Here is a picture of my Gypsy screen and mat with the paper laid out on it.
The Haunted House was cut at a height of 6 inches. Here are the picture of my Gypsy screen and mat.
The Ghosts were cut at a height of 2 inches. Here are pictures of how the cuts were laid out on my Gypsy and mat.
The Spooky Tree was cut at a height of 6 inches, and here are pictures of my Gypsy screen and mat.
The Vampire and Skeleton were both cut at a height of 3 inches. Here are the screen and mat pictures.
Frankenstein and the Bride of Frankenstein were cut at a height of 3 inches, and here are the pics of the screen and mat.
The Mummy was cut at a height of 3 inches and the Cat was cut at a height of 1 3/4 inches. Here are the screen and mat pics.
This was a fun layout to make, even though it took me about 5 1/2 hours to complete. The little pieces were hard to work with, especially all the little bones of the Skeleton! At least I was able to get a layout done of one of my son's elemetary school parties.
I too, have soany pics to catch up on! Love your monster mash!
