Happy Halloween everyone! I'm so happy to be here with you today to share my latest project! As the holiday season approaches, and schedules get busier, finding time to craft can feel like a challenge. That's why I am loving traveler's notebook-sized layouts, especially when paired with the adorable "Hey Pumpkin" collection! This compact size is perfect for fitting in creative time without the commitment to a full 12x12 layout! I just adore this size! 

Today  I have 2 layouts to show you, so let's get started! 
 
My first layout was such a fun one to create! I made the "Trunk or Treat" die cut from the Chit Chat ephemera my focal point on the left page, immediately bringing that Halloween spirit to life! 


To decorate this page a bit more, I cut rectangles from various pattern papers from the 6x6 paper pad and used them as tiny little trick-or-treat bags. I added some black twine to the top for the handles and decorated each bag with some of the Puffy Stickers for extra dimension and charm.

For the right-hand page of this layout, I used the playful Peek-a-Boo paper as my background. The black subtle pattern was the perfect background to showcase my two photos along with my journaling.  I added a few stars from the Odds and Ends ephemera, some more Puffy Stickers, and the fun "happy Halloween" speech bubble die cut from the Chit Chat die cuts.
My journaling was typed up on one of the tags from the Bits and Pieces pack. How cute is that little car filled with all my Halloween friends in it? It is from the Icon Sticker Sheet.

On my second layout, I used the bright and colorful Bubblegum Gingham/Linen Petite Print paper for my background. The vibrant color sets a fun tone for the pages, making it perfect to capture the fun memories of this Halloween Disney trip we took. 

                                 
To embellish the layout, I added die cuts from the Bits and Pieces pack, along with a few Puffy Stickers. The "good times" sticker on the green label is from the This and That Sticker Sheet.
For my journaling, I knew I wanted to use one of the cut-apart journaling spots on the "Sabrina's Sock" paper. I cut one out and added my journaling as there was a bit to say about the details of this trip. I trimmed a piece of the Jolly Jack-o-Lanterns paper and made it a side pocket to tuck the journaling in. This really ties the whole layout together! And how adorable is this sweet and spooky trio of Halloween friends in the corner? Love the touch this die cut from the Bits and Pieces added to this part of the layout!
Don't the Puffy Stickers add the perfect amount of shine? I just love this little smattering decorating the top of my journaling spot! 
Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out my traveler's notebook-sized layouts! I hope these pages have inspired you to give this size a try as a way to keep your memory keeping quick and enjoyable during this busy holiday season. It's a great way to document those special moments without feeling overwhelmed! Happy crafting my faboolous friends! See you next time!

 Hello there crafty friends! Who's ready for some Halloween treat holders!?! Treat holders are one of my favorite things to make! I knew I needed to make something with a treat included when I saw all the yumminess of the Hey Pumpkin collection! 

Each of my little treat holders is made from black textured cardstock and are SO easy to make! You can whip these bases up so quickly that you can make a whole batch of these for trick-or-treaters, co-workers, etc. I used this tutorial here to make the holders

After you get the bases all made, then the fun part comes! The decorating!! I turned to the 6x6 Paper Pad to decorate my bags. The cute pattern papers were just the right scale for these smaller bags, and the sheet of mini tags in the paper pad was the perfect size to decorate the front. 

I decorated the tags with some October Sky Sprinkles, Icon Stickers, and some Puffy Stickers

I slid some of my favorite treats into the pocket and then tied the top with some glitter ribbon and some Doodle Twine.

A few more close-ups of the group! 


                                       


I had the MOST fun whipping up these little cuties and I hope I have inspired you to grab the Faboolous "Hey Pumpkin" collection and make a batch of these for your favorite little monsters! Have a wonderful day and we will see you all next time! Happy Crafting!

 Hello, my crafty friends! I am so happy to be able to share my latest design team project with you today! I am so in love with the new "Hey Pumpkin" collection and have so many ideas brewing in my head to make with this cute collection. Today I decided on a 12x12 layout! 

My cute daughter dressed up as a nerd a few years ago and the colors of her costume were the perfect match with the Hey Pumpkin collection so I knew I needed to make a layout! I love how bright and fun the pattern papers are in this collection and I cut out a few 2x2 squares from the 6x6 paper pad and added them in a grid pattern behind my photo block. 

Let's take a closer look at some of the embellishments on the page, shall we?

In this bottom right corner, I made a small cluster of die cuts from the Odds and Ends. There are so many super cute pumpkins and candies that highlight a fun night of trick-or-treating!


The title is from the Chit Chat die cuts. I added a few white enamel dots to the eyes in the "Spooky" title for some dimension. I love how bright and vibrant the colors are in this collection.

I knew when I saw this little ghostie with glasses on that he would be the perfect embellishment to match my photos. I just adore him! I added the "Halloween Spirit" Doodlepop to one of the tags from the Chit Chat die cuts. I tied the top with some Beetle Black Doodle Twine.

To add a little feminine touch to the layout, this gorgeous cluster of florals and a wee little spider add just the perfect touch and go along so well with my bright Bubblegum Textured Cardstock background. A smattering of October Sky Shaped Sprinkles is a fun, shiny touch to this corner.  I also added some Halloween Shape Sprinkles to the center of the flowers. You'll also see a smiley little bat die cut from the Odds and Ends that is repeated throughout the layout.


I loved creating this layout and I hope to have inspired you to get this faboolous collection and use it to record your favorite Halloween memories with the adorable "Hey Pumpkin" collection! Have a great day and we will see you next time! Happy Crafting friends!
