Trick or Treat Layout

Do you like tricks or do you like treats?  My Mind's Eye Something Wicked Bundle from FotoBella.com has just what you need for tricks or treats.  Apryl with the Design Team here with my latest layout featuring photos of a buffet of Halloween treats.  Scary, gory, creepy treats.....it's okay, the Something Wicked's skeleton says "Eat, drink and be scary"!  Boo!

This is such a fun collection and I've been dying to use the paper with the stylin' skeleton.  I think he approves of all the spooky treats!

I used mostly embellishments to make this page.  The chipboard stickers, puffy stickers, sticker labels, mixed bag, and flair are all on this layout.

If you like all the treats you see, it's no trick that FotoBella.com has them all in the My Mind's Eye Something Wicked I Want it All Bundle.   Head over there and check it out for yourself!  

Happy Halloween!

Let's Decorate for Halloween!

My Minds Eye nailed it this year when it came to designing a killer Halloween collection.   There were so many ideas I couldn't wait to try when my I Want It All Bundle arrived from FotoBella.com.  

Frameables art is part of this collection and makes it really simple to make into decor.  I took the "It's the Wind and Nothing More" piece and framed it with a black 8"x10" glitter frame that I had picked up on clearance at Michaels over the summer.  I knew I would need that frame for something!  Paired with this twisted black wreath looks spooky on the wall together.  

Next up on the decor list is candles.  I have a ton of these vanilla colored LED candles.  They are great for because they go with everything and easy to alter for any occasion.  

For this candle, I chose the Black Tie Bones Elixir sticker from the Something Wicked Sticker Labels.  I matted the sticker with dark red card stock and fussy cut it out.

For anther candle, I cut a strip of "Going Batty" paper approximately 3 inches wide and the length to wrap around the candle.  I added a black glittered ribbon tied around the paper strip.  

Here's another fun one!  The skeleton I had in my decor stash.  I think I got him a couple years ago from Target.  He needed a fresh face!  I just love the Top Hat and spectables look, who doesn't like a good mustache?  This guy is stylin' now.  I fussy cut this classy skull face from the "Bootacular" paper.  

 Here's how the whole look came together.

Zombie Invasion and My Minds Eye Something Wicked

Finally, it's October!  And with October brings Halloween, and what does Halloween bring?  Ghosts, goblins and ZOMBIES!  My latest layout for the FotoBella Design Team is made with My Mind's Eye Something Wicked I Want It All Bundle from FotoBella.com.  Last Halloween I dressed as a zombie for the costume theme at work and actually won for scariest costume!  See the costume in my "Something Wicked Layout" blog post. 

There are a ton of great papers in this collection.  I love this plaid pattern and it has a fun black glitter stripe that runs through it.  

The mixed bag of embellishments have some great choices for embellishing.  The pointing finger is one I was trying to use on every layout I made, ha!  Finally made one that it worked with.  

And this flair with this happening skeleton in cool shades?  So cool and creepy at the same time!

Hope you found some spooky inspiration and visit FotoBella.com for your very own Something Wicked My Mind's Eye bundle.  

Have a spooky day!

EEK It's Something Wicked!

It's spectacularly spooky at our house now!  My Mind's Eye Something Wicked has a little bit to do with that!!  It's such an awesome Halloween collection and FotoBella.com has the I Want It All Bundle just waiting for you!  

One of my obsessions this year has been the DIY marquee lights from Heidi Swapp.  I couldn't not wait to make a set to go with my Halloween decor, complete with orange and purple lights!  These letters are a piece of cake to do and fully customizable.  

It comes with the letter template so you simply trace cut and paste the letter shape into the marquee, add the lights, and decorate the outside edge if you please. 

The outside of these letters I covered with black glitter tape.  It really makes the letters pop!  EEK!  

Get ready for Halloween with Something Wicked!

Spooky Halloween Tree

I LOVE Halloween!  Given the chance to work with My Minds Eye Something Wicked Bundle from FotoBella.com meant decorating in September, Eeeeek!  So fun!  I've been dying to decorate since spooky items started showing up on the Michaels shelves this summer.  I couldn't resist buying a twisted, spooky tree from Michaels.  To decorate it, I used the Mixed Bag from My Minds Eye Something Wicked.  Using my tag punch, I made tags with various printed papers and layered them with embellishments.  

I love the black glittered pieces.  They look so cool!  

This cat I added the mustache to is my favorite tag.

There are plenty of spooky elements that I left the way they were like and just punched them into tags.  

I inked the tags with black ink and hung them all over the tree.  

I think it looks pretty spooky, how about you?  

Have a Spooky day!

Aloha End of Summer Luau

Anyone get new neighbors over the summer?  Seems to be when new families move into the neighborhood.  We have a couple new neighbors and threw a neighborhood luau to welcome everyone.  My next door neighbor and I co-hosted and it was a ton of fun!  The full blog story is featured at paperplanelane.wordpress.com for Paper Plane Lane Boutique.  I share the menu, party decor ideas and fun dessert displays.

Here's a sneak peak:

The cupcakes decor project features Heidi Swapp's Minc machine and Cupcake kit.  

Aloha!
