boo juice…

I wanted to pop in quickly to share a fun little Halloween project I made to share on the Doodlebug Blog earlier this week.

I can't go a day without my diet Coke... I call it my "Mommy Juice" or "Sanity Serum" - so dressing it up for Halloween was just a natural for me!

I LOVED using these bright, fun Halloween papers and stickers from Doodlebug to make these bottles more cute than spooky…

I can't wait to give my friends their own bottle of "Boo Juice" or "Spooky Serum" for Halloween!

Treats aren't just for the kids, you know!

I just loved this trio of dancing reindeer!  After I stamped them and colored them with my chalk pencils, I thought they needed some hats to warm their cute little heads…

So I paper pieced a set of them

once upon a halloween…

I had a new Halloween layout go up in the garden at Two Peas this week!once_upon_a_halloween_layout2

This is the first time I’ve created a “hybrid” layout.  See the chevron patterned paper in the middle?  And those frames around my photos?  They are digital.  I downloaded a couple of digital kits:

This chevron paper kit:

And this frame set:

And I put everything together in Photoshop to create this:

Then I just trimmed it and used lots of other fun product to create the resulting layout!

I’m not sure why I haven’t tried this before – it was fun and easy and allowed me to save a lot of steps!

You can see my layout HERE in the garden at Two Peas – and you can check out lots of other fun Halloween projects from my fellow garden girls HERE.

Thanks for stopping by!!
