The Details…
Most of the supplies used to create this layout are from the October 2022 Ho Ho Ho Paper Pumpkin kit. I did however, add in a bit of card stock and a few other things to make it even more special – check out that shaker element! You’ll find a full supply list below.
- The top left 3″ x 4″ piece was inspired by one of the cards in the kit. To step it up I converted to a shaker element using a window sheet, foam adhesive strips and some sequins.
- There are two laser cut background pieces in the kit. I used one of them as a stencil to create a subtle background and then cut it down to about 2-3/4″ x 4″ and added it to a 3″ x 4″ piece that I cut from one of the card bases.
- Don’t forget to check out the envelopes that come in the kit! I opened two of them up and cut them down to 3″ x 4″ for two of my background pieces. By doing so I had more pattern options to choose from.
- I wanted to mimic the ombre look of the background piece in the upper left corner, on the pool party circle. To do so, I used a blending brush with some Bermuda bay ink and created a bit of an ombre look on the circle. Love it!
