Hello Authentique fans, it's Heather with today's post. When I was looking at the Glowing
line, I knew that I really wanted to scrap some cute Halloween photos.
My little girl has been making pirate noises, "Arrrrghs," for a few
weeks, so I asked if she wanted to be a pirate. She was super excited
about this, and true to my upbringing, I made her costume from pieces
that we already had around the house. Getting her ready made for the
perfect photos, and I knew that Authentique's papers would be perfect for the pictures.
I
used the Grunge Orange Dot paper, but turned it so that the spiders
seemed to be crawling across the paper. I also like how this weighed the
bottom of the layout down.
Since
Isla has just learned how to say "Trick or Treat", I had to use the
back of Headline 2. I also used a lot of the Noteables, Tabloids and
Icons to add more interest.
The Diction words made for easy journaling, and the Petite Type Square were perfect for the subtitle.
I also used just a little bit of Glossy Accents to make one of the Icons glow!

When my layout was done, I couldn't resist continuing to play with the Glowing
papers. I decided to make a fun Halloween treat! I had a few of these
tubes from the $1 rack at my nearest scrapbook store. I've been wanting
to play with them for awhile now. I used some black cardstock for the
tag, then layered my Authentique papers in Orange Brocade and Lace Spiderweb.
A
few of the diecuts made for the perfect decoration to the tag, and a
ribbon that I saved from some packaging was the perfect final touch.
I even added an Icon to the top of the tube!I hope that these projects inspire you to create your own Halloween fun using Glowing!

I can't get over her costume. It's so adorable. Love the stache!! Your layout really brings out the best in the photos.
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I wish I would have thought to ask Kami if she wanted to be a pirate! She also has been talking like a pirate for a while now. She will be happy with her mermaid costume, though :) This is a great layout! What a cute girl.
