HAPPY HAUNTING HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAYOUT | with Erica

Do you love the look of large title cut files but don't know where to add your photos? Try using the photos to back a couple of the letters!

Using large title cut files is one of my favorite ways to scrapbook! I love the look and all the different colors and patterns I can use on the page. The title really stands out and adding your photos to some of the letters is a fun way to document your memories.

I used the fun and colorful new Happy Haunting collection to document Liam Jay's 4th Birthday! He loves all things Halloween and since his birthday is in October why not celebrate with his favorite character Jack Skellington!

He had such a fun time celebrating all day and I just love these photos of him with his birthday cake! The large Happy Birthday cut file was perfect for his photos. I cut the file out on some black cardstock and think it helps the colors in the Happy Haunting collection really pop!

To embellish around the page I used some of the Happy Haunting Mini Icon Stickers and Chit Chat pieces. I added a few eyeball stickers peeking out behind some of the letters and love the way the colorful banner die cut looks on the page!

To help frame my photo I added a strip of the Happy Haunting Spooky paper to the top and bottom of the page! This colorful stripe paper is one of my favorites! I finished off my page with some typed out journaling and some tiny star sprinkles!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed my layout today using the Happy Haunting collection.

HAPPY HAUNTING TREAT HOLDERS | with Karen

Every year I am haunted at Halloween. No, not by the ghouls and goblins, but by those little chocolate treats that call my name from the pantry. I know you know what I am talking about. They are the most evil little things around!

And at the same time, they are the best thing around! So I decided to team up their "hauntedness" with some happy from the Happy Haunting collection.

Single-1

And voila! We have some cute little treat containers just big enough to hold two of the mini chocolate treats. Now, I know what you are thinking: "Two treats?! That's it?". But remember, the less that you put in those cute containers to give away, the more you have for yourself. Don't worry - it will be our secret!

Single-2

With just a little bit of the 12x12 patterned paper, a few stickers for sentiments and some adorable Shape Sprinkles, these little boxes will have you smiling until Halloween. Tie them up with some ribbon and maybe, just maybe, you will stay out of them long enough to give them away.

Open-box

Or not! Note: a few chocolate treats may have been harmed in the making of this project. Oops.

all-3

So there you are! A little cute box that may, or may not, help you combat the haunted call of the yummy treats. In any case, I hope the post made you smile!  Thanks for stopping by!

HAPPY HAUNTING PUMPKIN SHAPED MINI ALBUM | with Traci

Hey friends! Today, I have a really cute "Little Pumpkin" shaped mini album to share with you that's filled with the adorable Happy Haunting collection. I love a shaped album so when I realized October 26th is National Pumpkin Day, I knew exactly what I wanted to make!


To start, I cut the front and back covers out of clear acrylic with my new laser printer. I got the shape from Doodlebug's SVG cutting file called Pumpkins from the Flea Market collection. 


The first page that you see through the cover was made with the 12x12 Hello paper. It's the perfect color and I just adore the cute print. The little worm sprinkle sticker might be my favorite little character of the bunch!

Inside the album, I used a colorful mix of 12x12 Happy Haunting and Petite Print papers for the base of each page. Then I decorated with lots of fun pieces. Here I used the Dot and Stripe in citrus and the funny specimen jars from the Odds and Ends. I just love the jar of eyeballs!

How cute are these happy pumpkins?! Paired with a friends sticker from the This and That, I can just imagine the fun photos that could be saved on this page.
 

This Happy Haunting collection is so bright and colorful. The cute purple house against the green "Spooky" paper is ah-mazing! It's makes the perfect backdrop for photos of crazy costumes, holiday parties, fun decorations and yummy treats!


For the round photo mats, I used a 3.5" scallop punch and a 3" circle punch.


The spider filled BOO is from the Chit Chat. The green circle with the dots is from the Bits and Pieces. I'm loving these new die cuts! This package comes with tags, tabs, shapes, and tombstones. Oh, and trees ...

... like this one! I added some dots from the Spider Celebration Sprinkles to the branches so they would look like colorful lights. And check out the ghosts peeking from behind the tree, lol! So cute! 

Hope everyone has a great Halloween and uses the adorable Happy Haunting collection for their fun projects!

HAPPY HAUNTING HALLOWEEN CARDS | with Wanda

Hello ghoul-friends! It's almost Halloween! But there's still time to make some fun and easy Halloween cards using the Happy Haunting Collection! I pulled together a great card sketch, awesome new Doodlebug supplies, and right away I had three cards ready! I used the Happy Haunting papers and embellishments along with some of my other Doodlebug favs. All three cards have the same layout with different colors and design elements. This card layout would work with any of the collections!

I love these new shaker Doodle-Pops! They are so fun - and how cute is that sweet smiling Jack-o-Lantern!? I die cut white cardstock tags using the Large Tags die set. I splattered on some black ink too. I used the Doodle-Pops as the focus of each card, and matched the papers and the sentiments to the images.

Here's the haunted mansion card - it's cool that it has purple and hot pink - gotta love Doodlebug colors! So bright and happy! Black mini doilies are just the right touch to add texture to the cards.

 This little ghost boy is ready for some candy!!! And his little bat friends are ready too!

 I used Doodlebug Textured cardstock in black as the bottom layer to all the cards. I feel like the black really makes all the other colors POP!

Happy Halloween my Doodlebug friends! I hope you have fun and get lots of treats! Until I see you next time, happy crafting!

HAPPY HAUNTING HALLOWEEN LAYOUT | with Lisa

I like all things spooky and when it comes to October, I could scrap Halloween layouts and mini albums every day :) I love the new Doodlebug Halloween collection, called Happy Haunting, and created my very first layout yesterday. I like the bright colors and I love that there's some pink in the collection. :)


For this layout, I went to the Silhouette store and chose two of the older Halloween cut files from Doodlebug, the pumpkins and the ghosts. First, I let my machine cut out all of the pieces, then I assembled all the parts of the pumpkins and adhered them to some white cardstock. I hand-stitched around the whole design, using color-matching thread. To give the pumpkins more detail and dimension, I added shadows and highlights, using Distress Oxides and a white pen. Then I cut the design out, leaving white borders. 


For the background, I did some easy mixed media. First I added color using my Gelatos and a baby wipe and then I added some stars with a stencil an my Distress Oxides. To finish, and make it more interesting, I splattered white paint on top and let everything dry.


For the ghosts, I just added some color around the edges with my Oxides and then adhered them to some vellum using foam squares and ripped the paper around the ghost, leaving a distressed, transparent border.

I knew that I wanted the pumpkins to be on the bottom of the page but I didn't really know, where I was going to place my ghosts.

After some playing around, I decided how I wanted to place the photo and the ghosts and then I started going through the die cuts and stickers to find some more things to add. 
I really love the naked, spooky trees in the background and the little bats, flying around... ;)


To top the layout off, I added some colorful stars, a worm sticker and a cute little shaker pumpkin on top of the other pumpkins. LOVE IT! :)


I hope you like how the layout turned out. Thank you so much for stopping by and see you soon! :)

HAPPY HAUNTING HALLOWEEN TREAT PROJECT | with Miguel

The Halloween season is one of my favorite seasons, the costumes, the fun and the sweets... I wouldn't want to miss it!

Today I created this wonderful project that would make a fun gift for a family member or a special person.

I made the box from scratch with my cardboard technique since I needed a firm and solid structure. The box is covered with the beautiful Happy Haunting collection.  Inside, there is a place for three glass jars to which I added fun borders and covers.

I painted the caps black with a spray, filled the jars with sweets and decorated the tops with some labels from the Chit Chat Pack. I love the result! I added some Doodle Twine to the jars for a fun detail.

On the front of the box I created a scene with the Odds & Ends and this beautiful ghost Doodle Pop.

I say goodbye wishing that my work will fill you with a lot of inspiration!  I wish you a wonderful Halloween!
