Halloween 2022

This is Halloween 2022 and again I have used one of the Crisp Air CTMH layouts I did some time ago.  I did add my 2 fox paper piecing's shown in a previous post.   The pumpkins in each corner and the scallop borders were made with my Silhouette Cameo as was the title.  The leaves are ghost are from dies I had on hand.


While this is an older paper packet CTMH continually adds new papers.  If interested in any CTMH products check out my link below.  Thank youl

Fall layout using CTMH Crisp Air paper

The large moose and pumpkin were purchased from PaperPiecingMemories ByBabs, she does awesome work.  While I do make SVG files as well I am not an artist so mine never look as awesome as Babs.  The other accents were made by me with dies I have on hand.  

This layout I made some time ago with the Close to My Heart Crip Air paper packet.  I design layouts for my CTMH club every month and now I am finally adding pictures to some of them. Some people do not understand how you can design without the pictures, but I do that all the time.

First Halloween Sterling - CTMH paper

 I used the Little Bear with Pumpkin from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs on my Cameo to make the big bear with pumpkin. It is an older file so I don't think they have this exact one any longer. I love the plaid paper in this old CTMH paper pack. I made this layout some time ago and I felt the fall colors work great with my bear and title. Not your typical Halloween layout, but who says it has to be.  I added a few more Halloween accents with dies and the title I made on my Silhouette Cameo.



I used some of my Quickutz dies for the Halloween accents and some other dies for the leaves.

Alphabet-Animals-01

This is a very simple fist page in a book I am making for my grandson.  The Alphabet Animals are from Little Scraps of Heaven


 These are not from Close to My Heart, but I do add paper piecing's like this to my CTMH layouts.  The base page is Sundance CTMH cardstock.  I also used an older border punch for the sides.  The rest of the name I created with ZP Sugar Pusher font.  This is very very simple. but an fun opening page for my grandson.

Fox SVG piecing's

 These 2 files are from Little Scraps of Heaven, they are so adorable.  I have made these as my grandson as a fox for Halloween 2022 so I am making a page for that and will post the page when done.  Right now I was just making some paper piecing's to see how they looked when I made them.

Daisy Daisy layouts Close to My Heart

These five layouts were made from the Close to My Heart Daisy Daisy paper packet (2 of them) and one coordinating cardstock.  I have added a little more cardstock to come up with the 5 layouts.  There is enough paper left over to make some cards or perhaps even another layout by adding some cardstock for the bases.  I design these for my club so I always leave spots for other embellishments, accents or titles. There is always  a journal spot so they can at least add names and dates to the layouts.  I have made a title with my Silhouette Cameo.  All journal spots are cut with dies I have on hand and the CTMH green dots are used on the layouts as well.

Timless-Toys-02

 This is an older paper pack called Stargazer. I have added a title to this page now using my Silhouette Cameo and the Jokerman font.  I made a shadow for this.  I inked the top of the title with CTMH Poppy ink.
