Recipe Challenge To Inspire!

Hi Shanna here with a little challenge for you to help inspire your creativity. If you are anything like me when you are lacking inspiration you go look at galleries to help inspire you. Sometimes that doesn’t even work. Another great way to get inspired again is to look for challenges to help motivate your creative juices. That is exactly what I hope to do today is motivate and inspire you through a Recipe Challenge. This is the best kind of recipe to because it doesn’t require you to even cook…LOL! So below I’ve listed the recipe of everything you need to have in your layout, but you are able to mix it up however you’d like and even add more to make it your own. Let this inspire you and remember substitutions are sometimes better than what the original recipe calls for.

  • 2 patterned papers – use one with a busy pattern and one with a more subdued pattern that looks ok to journal on
  • 1 frame – use one that comes with the kit you are using or make your own
  • 2 Greenery Elements – make one bigger than the other
  • 6 flowers or other elements – you can repeat and use the same ones over and over just play with the sizes
  • 2 tags
  • 1 quote that fits your theme of your layout – remember quotes help inspire your layouts

And here is my completed layout using Sugar Moon’s “Traditions” mini kit she had on her Facebook page as a freebie a few months back. The font used is “Journal”.

I hope this helps to inspire you to create more layouts and remember you can always use the recipe over and over again and just mix it up to make each layout different.

Happy Wednesday! This week I have a Word Challenge for you! I am going to give you a word and I want you to use it any way that you want in a layout or hybrid project.

There is my hybrid Project (a printable 5×7 card)

FREE Halloween Treat Bag Toppers

The little boy my daughter babysits is three and he is IN LOVE with Halloween right now. It’s so great because he really makes you feel all the excitement and wonder of the season. Whenever we see a pumpkin, he looks at you sideways and says with a big smile, “It’s almost Halloweeeeen time!”  His enthusiasm is contagious!

Do you celebrate Halloween? Will you be trick or treating or will you have a party, or both!? I adore Halloween parties and I usually try to have one every year – I enjoy making all the spooky themed treats, the games are fun, but mostly I love to see everyone in costumes – it’s so fun to see what’s in their imagination from year to year.

One of my favorite things to give for party favors is treat bags – it’s fun to load them up with homemade candy and treats, but I also include an apple, raisins, nuts, and you could even do a toothbrush and mini toothpaste or something! To make them more special I usually make a personalized treat bag topper for them. Every year I do a different design. Here is a photo from one of the years.

For those, I just used plain paper bags, filled them with goodies and stapled the treat bag toppers to them. On the outside I made “ghost pops” using tootsie roll pops covered with white paper towels. I fastened them around the neck with rubber bands, but you could use ribbons, or bread twistie ties or whatever you have laying around. I drew on two eyes and taped them underneath their spooky shrouds. It was simple, but fun and the kids loved them!

If you’d like to make some this year I have a template for you! All you have to do is grab the FREE template, decorate them and print them out to use! So fun and easy!  Head over to With Love Studio and pick up the FREE template.

If you do make a treat bag topper, make sure to share a copy of it with us in the With Love Studio Challenge forums – you’ll get credit for it – points that will turn into $ to buy product in the With Love Studio – yeah, that’s a WIN-WIN!!

For this year’s treat bag toppers I’m using Scrapping Artistry’s “Bad News at Night Collab” it’s a fun kit that you can grab at MyMemories or With Love Studio.
