A Little One's Halloween

Some layouts I just can't get enough of and this is one of them. It's a very quick and simple layout and great for those little stamps. This stamp came from the "All in the Family" and "Family Accessories" sets by Stampin' Up! I haven't played much with those sets yet. What I had in mind for this card was about what I got. I wanted the little child to look like the pumpkin was his costume. Sort of does. This really reminds me of our son when he was a little over a year. We lit the candle in the pumpkin, put it between his legs and took a photo. He kept lifting the lid and looking at the flame. He LOVED fire. Kind of scary!!! And took a picture like that for a few years while he was young. I would like to redo his scrapbook pages from that time. It's one of those deals where you say, "If I knew then what I know now about scrapbooking....." I know the scrapbook would be a lot nicer. But back to the card. This could be used as a "Baby's First Halloween" card. And the concept of the baby and the pumpkin could be incorporated onto Halloween scrapbook pages.

This card layout is called a "Circle Window With Frame" and it's by Kristina Werner. The pattern can be found at her blog. And here is my tutorial on improving that second larger punched hole. It saves a lot of time and steps! You can find it here.





Thank you for stopping by,
