Doodlebug Boos & Brews Halloween Layout with Pink

Hello there!  I'm so excited to be sharing some ideas using one of my favorite Doodlebug collections for Halloween yet called Boos & Brews.  I don't know how they do it, but Doodlebug manages to top themselves year after year!

I love how this collection includes the aqua and I knew I had another set of photos from a past Halloween just waiting for the right collection.  To help make it a perfect match I also mixed in some of the new petite prints in bubblegum to pick up the hot pink in my daughter's costume.

As a way to include lots of the fun embellishments from the collection I decided to create a circle border down the left side of my layout.  It gives my page the pop of color I was after and also grounds each of the stickers, die-cuts and sprinkles.

I wanted to stitch around each of my circles, but I knew it might be hard to maneuver my page around the arm of my machine once they were adhered so I chose to stitch and then adhere them.  


As I was creating I discovered the new eerie eyes shape sprinkles looked super cute layered over eyes of the critter stickers and die-cuts to add another layer of dimension.

I finished off my layout with a custom title die-cut on my Silhouette and paired with my favorite Love Letter Alphabet stickers.


I hope I've inspired you when scrapbooking girls at Halloween and making a collection work for you when you don't have just the right colors to match your costumes.
