Supplies Needed:

  • One sheet of 12x12 (trim 1/4" to fit in a CM album) or 8 1/2 x 11 Navy cardstock
  • One sheet Kelly Green cardstock- size 3 x 11 to fit 12 x 12 or 3 x 8 to fit 8 1/2 x 11 page.
  • 1 sheet Hallmark Ghost & Pumpkins with Stars acid free Stickers
  • 1 White Picket Fence Die Cut
  • Dark Green acid free Chalk (can use ink pad)
  • Sponge tip dabber or Cotton Ball to use with the chalk.
  • White Gel Roller Pen
  • Photo Splits and/or Glue Stick
  • 1 Moon punch

Instructions:

  1. Cut your Green cardstock to look like 3 small hills across the long length of paper.
  2. Take your sponge tip dabber or cotton ball and rub into the Dark Green Chalk and then rub along the top of the hills the entire length across the paper. This will create a shadow effect. You can also use a Dark Green Ink Pad in place of the chalk.
  3. Mount the Picket Fence behind the Green Hills.
  4. Mount the Picket Fence & Hills along the bottom of the Navy Cardstock.
  5. Place your Pumpkin stickers along the front of the Picket fence. Placing one in the middle and one at each end of the fence.
  6. Place the Ghost to flow around the fence and between the pickets of the fence. (I even slipped one behind the picket fence with his arms reaching through.)
  7. Place your stars along both side edges of your page. Make sure you keep the space open for your photos.
  8. Take your White Gel Roller and draw two curved lines by each of the ghost hands and by each ghost tail to give them the flying appearance.
  9. Your Page is now ready for pictures and journaling.
