Something Wicked This Way Comes | Tarrah McLean

Hi Cut Shoppe friends,

It's Tarrah McLean back with you and today I have a new Halloween layout to share using the Boo To You cut file set! 

The Boo To You cut file set

When I saw the 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' title, I knew that I wanted to use it as a large title for my page, I broke the title up and cut some of it in black and the 'Wicked' part in gold.  

The Wicked Fun cut file set

I cut out the spider web in black cardstock from the Wicked Fun cut file set and added it to the bottom right corner of my photo. I like how it balances out the page with the busy left hand side.

I went with a black and gold theme for my layout mainly because of the witches hat I am wearing in the photo. I pulled out all the Halloween embellishments that went with the colours and the theme. 

     

I was really happy with how my page turned out today!

Thank you for stopping by The Cut Shoppe blog today!

Happy creating!

October 31

Happy October everyone!  It's time to get working on some fun Halloween projects and The Cut Shoppe has you covered!  This week, we have three new Halloween designs in the Shop...and don't forget that you can also pick up the Ghost Town Digital/Printable collection, Happy Halloween Wood Veneers and Halloween Acrylic!  I have a spooktacluar layout to share today, using the new Boo to You cut file.

I wanted to use Oct. 31 from the cut file set as a large title on my layout.  I started by drawing a large spider web in the background with my Silhouette Sketch Pens, and then hand stitching over the lines.  I also added some watercolors inside the web.  I tilted the title just a bit to follow the center line of the spider web and placed my photo right next to the title.

I added some machine stitching to the numbers on the title with my sewing machine, to give it some texture.  Then I layered a few of the wood veneers from the Happy Halloween wood veneer set over the title.  To give dimension to the title, I adhered it with pop dots to make it stand out from the spider web background.

I hope you've found some inspiration for your next Halloween layout, and you can create your own custom look with all of the Halloween products that are available in The Cut Shoppe Etsy store.  Here's a look at all of the new cut file sets that are now in the store.
