This cut file is perfect for adding a large title to your layout. I knew I wanted to back the cut file with patterned papers from the Simple Vintage Halloween collection from Simple Stories. Since this collection has a more traditional color scheme, with a lot of darker colors, I decided to use White card stock for my background to add some brightness to the layout. I cut the design from Black card stock and then backed each letter with a different patterned paper.
After I had all of the patterned paper in place on the cut file, I hand stitched some stars to add texture. I used White embroidery floss on the larger Black stars, to make it really stand out. Then I traced the stars that were the centers of each "R" onto the patterned paper, used my paper piercer to make holes and stitched those with Black embroidery floss. I love the look of both colored threads in the title!
I placed the finished title on my background paper, at a slight tilt to have room for my photo at the bottom of the page. This photo is from 2016 and I had not had a chance to scrap it yet, so it was perfect for this layout. I added a few embellishments from the collection around my photo, to help draw attention to it. Then I spaced out a few more embellishments throughout the title to finish off the look of the layout. And I had to add some splatters of Black Color Shine for an extra spooky look on my page!
