Here is a fun page I made last year using Tricks & Treats!
\Trim off the barcode strip from a full sheet of Paper 9 to use as the background. If you’d like to add hand stitching on the background, place a foam mat underneath then use a paper piercer to poke a hole through every corner of every square. Use a ruler to pierce a hole approximately every ½ centimeter between the corner holes all across the page. Use a backstitch and coordinating colors of thread to hand stitch around each colorful square. Each square takes approximately 5 minutes to stitch and there are 41 colorful squares which amounts to about 4 hours of hand stitching time. I stitched the squares that eventually got covered by photos so you can skip over those ones to save some time.
Place two 4x4” photos on opposite corners of the background with the points touching in the center of the page over the purple square. Back an orange/black polka dot foam frame sticker with a piece of the cream ghosts B-side of Paper 6, place it in the center overlapping the photos, then add a black “let’s go” sentiment from the puffy phrase stickers. Add a strip of black/white ghosts washi tape under the right photo and another piece of the same washi tape along with a black/white polka dot pennant die cut tucked above the foam frame sticker and topped with a silver skull mini puffy sticker. Flank the center foam frame with a mint “happy haunting” puffy phrase sticker with the letters overlapping the photo edges. Add mini foam Thickers at the top of the top photo to spell the names or make a caption.
Fussy cut a black cat/silver skull from a die cut and add it to the right edge of the top photo along with an orange/yellow “happy haunting” cardstock sticker, brown floral pennant die cut, and a black moth mini puffy sticker. Place a black “trick or treat” pennant die cut over white space on the bottom photo and top with a candy corn mini puffy sticker. On the top right and bottom left corners add a silver moon and cream bone mini puffy stickers and sequins attached with quartered small glue dots. Add more sequins around the middle. Add black “31” mini puffy stickers on the bottom left. Journal with a white pen below the bottom photo. Cover the photos and splatter white acrylic paint diagonally across the page to finish.
