Something Old, Something New: October

Hi friends, Trace (tracermajig) back with you for another challenge! Can you believe Halloween is right around the corner? I simply can’t wrap my head around that! But it did inspire this month’s challenge and I hope you can play along!

If you are new to this challenge, the rules are simple. You have to use an old and new product from those selected on your page. You can either use what Katie has provided in the freebie or if you already have these element packs you can use anything from them. Apart from that, feel free to take it any direction you like!

Let’s see what we are playing with.

The Old:

The New:

The team came up with some great pages to inspire you. Let’s check them out!

I simply adore these photos that Addie (AddieG) scrapped! I love the spider web in the corner and how the chippy disc anchors down the photos!
This is what Addie used to create her page: Chippy Fall Discs 01, Curated Favorites Paper Pack 05: Kraft, Fall Flourish Border Strips 02, Hand Drawn Webs 01, Gesso 01 Brushes and Stamps, Notebook Edge Frames 05, October 31st Sentiment Stamps, Ripped Frame Stack Layers 01, Spectrum | Gardenia Transfers 14


Valerie’s (nana_vg) photos of a Halloween fundraiser were perfect for this challenge! How cute is that googly eyed spider in the web? This is such great page design to add spooky details to!
Valerie used these products on her page: Curated Studio Mix Scrapbooking Kit 16, Dreamy Paper Pack 08Fine Line Twists Brushes and Stamps 04, Googly Eyed Halloween Stickers, Hand Drawn Webs 01, Layer Works 1988, Photo Clusters 68


Halloween layouts are some of my favourites to make. I didn’t have a plan going in other than I wanted to use the googly eyed ghost and to have a spider in the web. I also clipped a glitter paper to the web to give it a bit of texture. It’s subtle, but I like how it turned out!
