Inspiration Saturdays | Week 1

Hello scrappers and crafters! Ready for a new series? Every Saturday I’ll be posting an inspiration piece, accompanied by a layout I made drawing inspiration from that image. I’ll be pulling these from a series I did on my personal blog in 2013, but will also mix it up with all new content. I’m hoping these will serve as jump starts for anyone looking for scrapping inspiration over the weekend.

This week’s inspiration piece (above) comes from Rachel Castle.

Here’s my interpretation using washi tape!

The washi tape circles were made using a tutorial that I posted right here on Craft Gossip! If you use the inspiration or the tutorial, be sure to drop a link in the comments to share your layout.

Happy Scrapping!

Traci used the BOO to You collection from Bella Blvd. to created this fang-tastic Halloween mini scrapbook album project. I love the cover, it’s shaped like the large BOO die cut letters she used, cut from fun pattern papers with a few embellishments added. The album is all connected together with black O rings.

The rest of the inside pages are rounded rectangles, measuring 7 1/2″ x 4″ covered in more fun pattern papers and lots of darling black kitties, ghosties, skulls and Jack O’ Lanterns in traditional Halloween corners.

Of course it wouldn’t be an album from Traci if she didn’t include her signature interactive elements like flaps, folds and pocket pages. This one is filled with cute journaling cards and tags.

Visit the Artsy Albums blog for all the details and more pics of this fun project.
