Echo Park Paper

Halloween Market Box

The jack-o-lanterns are grinning. The spiderwebs are swaying. Boo! It's time for Halloween! I'm Michelle Zerull and I've made my spooky projects with the Halloween Market Collection by Carta Bella. The patterns and colors are on trend and have just enough spook to bring these market boxes to life.

 

 

Like all Carta Bella Collections, there's also a Halloween Market Solids Kit full of coordinating solid colors that match without fault. The Dark Orange/Cream Solid Paper was precisely what I needed to add a spooky spiderweb to the gift box top.

 

 

Every gift needs an enclosure card. This little card was made with elements from the Halloween Market Ephemera package as well as the Halloween Market Haunted House Die Set. The House Silhouette fits nicely on this card and makes a great focal image.

 

 

I know that Halloween isn't a traditional gift giving holiday, but things are different this year and I want to take this

 

opportunity to remind my friends and family that I care about them. With the Halloween Market Collection, these boxes won't be scary...they'll be loved.

Halloween Market Candy Cart

Hello Carta Bella Fans, It’s Dorymar today with a 3D “BOOTIFUL” project with the stunning Halloween Market Collection. A few years ago I created this fun project with another Echo Park Paper Company Collection, when I saw the beautiful candy carts included in the collection I thought “Dory, you need to scraplift your project” and that’s what I did.

This is a personal project made from scratch with my own measurements.  I started my project creating the base of the cart with a black chipboard.  To make the wheels and the handles, I used a digital cut file from Echo Park Paper at Silhouette Store. (Echo Park Ice Cream Cart Id # 51235)

For the umbrella, I created the base with Carta Bella Ebony Black Linen Cardstock because it is very thick and made a strong base for my project.  After I created all the bases, I covered them with patterned papers from the collection. I'm in love with the "Creepy Candies” paper, it was the perfect cover for the base of the cart.

To hold the umbrella and the handle of the cart I used a paper straw I found in a craft store.  The black and white paper straws match perfectly with the patterns of the collection. I used glitter paper to cover the wheel and the base of the handle. 

The measurements of the base of the cart are 5x7x4” and the base of the top of the cart is 5.25x7.25x1”.  I decorated the cart with fun elements of the collection.  I included the fun Halloween Banner from the Element Sticker Sheet and used it as a big sign of my Halloween Market Candy Cart and for the small signs, I used part of the beautiful die cuts included in the ephemera pack.

I adore to include in all my 3D projects a fun mini album for my memory keeping.  Inside this beautiful Halloween Candy Cart, you can find a fun mini album.  The measurements of the base of this mini are 6.25x4.25x2". The mini includes five fun and interactive pages perfect for your Halloween pictures.

I wanted the cover of my project to match perfectly with my candy cart, to create it I used two banners that includes the Element Sticker Sheet and I also included one of the beautiful candy carts that the collection includes  with other fun designs of the collection.  All are adhered with foam tape to add dimension.

Close ups of the inside of the album.

I hope you enjoyed this project as much I enjoyed working with it!  The new Halloween Market Collection is super fun and it’s perfect for any project.

Thanks for stopping by!

Trick or Treat Layout

Hey everyone,  Michelle here today with a new  layout to share using the I Love Halloween collection and a cut file from the Silhouette Store.  I found this cute spider web cut file from Echo Park in the Silhouette Store and I knew I had to use it for this layout!

 

 

Halloween layouts are so much fun.  We always go all out with the costumes at Halloween.  My daughter made the cutest little witch ever!  I backed the cut file with pattern papers from this collection.  Then I put it on a black background so it would stand out.  I also stitched the web to make it look more realistic.

 

 

I then just needed to add some embellishments.  I did a couple of clusters making sure I didn't hide the web too much.

 

 

How cute is my daughter with her little green face? lol

Spooky House Decor

It’s Halloween! It’s the time of year when little goblins dress up and eat their fill of candy. Halloween might be different this year, but candy and spooky stories will always make the evening fun. I'm Michelle Zerull and this year, I used the I Love Halloween Collection from Echo Park Paper to create this engaging Spooky House. 

 

 

The sweet  trick or treaters are from the I Love Halloween Element Sticker Sheet.can move about, making this not only decorative, but fun to play with as well. To make them mobile, I simply added a stand made from Carta Bella White Shimmer Cardstock.

 

 

I also used the Carta Bella White Shimmer Cardstock to make the cute little ghosts. The ghosts were easily cut with the I Love Halloween Boo Ghost Die Set. So many fun possibilities with those little ghosts. They can float all over the house!

 

One of my favorite elements in this project is the fencing. I used the Orange/Black Coordinating Solid Paper from the I Love Halloween Solids Kit and I love how it turned out. You can see both sides on the paper at once with the fence, and like all of Echo Park's Solids they match beautifully!

 

 

In the back of the house, you will find two spooky tombstones. The tombstones are made with the I Love Halloween 6X6 Paper Pad. The pad has smaller, scaled down versions of the 12X12 patterned papers. They are perfect for items like the tombstones or pathway, and of course...Halloween cards!

 

 

I loved using the I Love Halloween Collection with all of the coordinating prints, and I'm looking forward to making more projects throughout the season. What will you be making this year?

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween Mini Album

Hi friends, It’s Dorymar today sharing a SPOOKTACULAR mini album with the new “I Love Halloween” collection from Echo Park. I adore Halloween colors and this collection has the perfect colors but also the most BOOTIFUL little monsters. 

This is a quite simple album but has very beautiful stuff and it’s a fun and fast way to recreate and document your fun Halloween photos.  This album has 7 pages including the front and back cover, the base of 6 pages was made with black chipboard and covered with coordinated patterned papers from the 6x6 paper pad.

For the cover, I used a piece that was cut out from the striped paper included in the 6x6 paper pad and reduced it at 5.75x5.75. On top of this piece, I adhered a piece of cardstock that measured 3.5x5.5 and covered it with a piece of paper cut out from the stars paper. Then I added on the cutest monsters, haunted house, and a Happy Halloween words from the Element Sticker Sheet.  For finishing touches, I added ribbons and enamel dots from my shelves. This is a super cute Halloween scene!

I usually use many layers of paper so that my projects look more detailed and so that I am able to use all the beautiful patterns that the collection includes. On the right page I cut a piece from the beautiful Carta Bella Ebony Black Cardstock to make a pocket to hold three open folds made with the 3x4 cards to have more space for photos. On top of the pocket I added with foam tape two beautiful monsters and a fun sentiment included in the Frames and Tags Ephemera Pack.

After I covered all the paper bases, I used the scraps to make layers behind my photo mats.

The pocket on the right page was created with a piece of cardstock that measures 12x4.5” and folded in the middle. Inside it, I included two pieces of cardstock that measures 3.5 x 5” to create cards, both are covered with the beautiful patterned papers from the collection. The pocket was decorated with die cuts and stickers from the collection. It is always good to include threads, buttons and any other element that you like to highlight your project.

On the right page I created another pocket with the black cardstock, this pocket measures 5.75x4.25 and holds two tags that measure 3x5. I absolutely love working with the embellishments! The stickers and die cuts were perfect to decorate closer to my photo mat or simply to decorate any part of my album. I love using the foam tape because it helps me create layers and this highlights my project.

On the left page I created an open fold with the green coordinating solid paper to have more space to add my photos and journaling.

As you can see, this mini album is fun and cute but also has a lot of space for pictures, so I hope you can add it to your scrap lift list!

Fall Day Layout

Hey everyone, Michelle here today with a new layout to share using the Hello Autumn collection from Carta Bella.  We have such beautiful colors here in the fall.  I have so many photos of my kids playing in the leaves.  It's such a beautiful time of year!

 

I used a cut file from Paige Evans to create the background of my layout.  I backed all the leaves and acorns with beautiful papers from this collection.  I also added some paint splatters around the wreath.

 

 

I then added some stitching inside every leaf to make them stand out.  They turned out so pretty!

 

 

I didn't want to add too much to this layout because I didn't want to hide those pretty leaves.  I created a few embellishment clusters on the wreath and on my photos.

 

 

I'm usually a one photo per layout scrapper but I couldn't decide which one to use so I added both!

 

 

Thanks for stopping by!

Grateful Basket Decor

Autumn is my favorite season! I love the rich colors, the wonderful smells, and the crunching sound of leaves beneath my feet. I'm Michelle Zerull and today I would like to share a "Grateful Basket" that I made with the beautiful Carta Bella "Hello Autumn" Collection.

I was so excited to see so many trendy patterns in this collection. I fell in love with the "B" side of the "3X4 Journaling Cards" Patterned Paper. The fun, ombre leaf print will match everything Autumn and looks so cute with the chipboard floral piece from the Hello Autumn Chipboard Accents.

 

 

Good news! The chipboard now comes without adhesive so you can layer your chipboard pieces more easily and add even more dimension to all of your projects!

 

 

The basket's clean lines and designer prints give my dining room table a fresh, new look that will last all season. I loved working with these papers and I'm already planning my next project with the Hello Autumn Collection by Carta Bella! What will you make with yours?

6 x 8 “Fave Pie” Spread

Hi there, friends; It’s Lydia Cost today, and I’m so excited to be working with the Hello Autumn collection.  There is just something so gorgeous about Carta Bella paper textures, and when it’s paired with a fall color scheme you won’t be able to resist.  I fell madly in love with the patterns and illustrations in this collection.  It was such a breeze to work with!

For this spread I really wanted to do a full page in my 6 x 8 album, and then add even more journaling and interest with a corresponding pocket page.  I love mixing up the dimensions and layouts inside my 6 x 8 album, so this is the perfect combination.

For the main layout, I chose a simple design that could highlight my large photo of one of my favorite fall pastimes, pie baking.  There’s just something so magical about all the hours that go into kneading dough, braiding it, and folding in yummy farmer’s market fruit.  I don’t think I’ll ever tire of the gorgeous outcome.

To highlight my photo even more, I fussy-cut some of the amazing leaves from the patterned papers.  I arranged them all around the page.  I then popped up my photo with some dimension and layered on some frames and tissue paper behind it.  This made it easy to tuck in even more of those gorgeous leaves.  I added some stitching, layered on that gorgeous pie chipboard piece, and added my title.

One the left side pocket page, I wanted to keep it simple in comparison.  I chose one of the amazing journaling cards from the patterned papers and cut it to size.  This card was perfect for adding in typewriter journaling.   I chose a corresponding paper for my other small pocket and added some fun chipboard bits and more of those gorgeous leaves.

I finished up the layout with a great 4 x 6 card, that I ran through my sewing machine.  I left this one simple, so that I can go back and tuck in a copy of my recipe card.  All that was left was to splatter on some black paint, to really draw out the color of my title.  I’m so excited with how pretty it all looks.

Happy Fall Decor

Hey everyone,  Michelle here today with a new project using the  Happy Fall Collection.  Fall is my favorite time of year, I'm always so happy when all the new fall collection come out!  For my project I used a cut file from Lori Whitlock to make this sweet little fall truck!

 

The cut file came with some flowers but instead of using those I added leaves stickers in the back of the truck.  I popped some of them up to add some dimension. The sweet little banner fit perfectly along the side of the truck!

 

 

I added a piece of ephemera on the side of the truck.  There were so many cute ones to choose from, it took me forever to decide which one to use!

 

 

To finish it off I added some word stickers on the front and back license plates.

 

 

It turned out so cute.  I think I'll keep this one for myself and use it with my fall decor!
