In the Pocket Villains by Kellybell Designs

Halloween has come and gone this year. Now comes time to scrap all those Halloween pictures you took. Sometimes it's more fun to scrap the pictures of the mean, gory, scary and nasty villains and bad guys. They add so much drama to the page. Who's your favorite villain? Could it be Maleficent, maybe Jafar or how about Cruella De Vil? Villains are the subject of this week's new release from Kellybell Designs. Plus it's an In The Pocket style pack - too cool!

IN THE POCKET VILLAINS
 
Also new this week is a set of That Covers It Templates. Kelly's got a little bit different twist on these, they've got some circles in them.

THAT COVERS IT TEMPLATES VOL 10
 
You can find all of these new packs inside the Kellybell Designs Store for 25% off this weekend only. Make sure to pick these up soon.
 
Now let's take a look at how I scrapped with these new packs.

Kellybell’s November Blog Challenge

 

2014 has really flown by fast! This will be the last blog challenge of the year. We take the month of December off since the holiday season is so busy and hectic. Have you enjoyed the challenges so far? I hope so! This last challenge is all about FOOD. Dining at Disney is quite a yummy experience!

CT member Julie has a set of pocket style journal cards that's the participation prize this month. Make sure you submit a layout so that you can get this pack.




Here are the rules and instructions to participation in the Monthly Blog Challenge:
  • Create a layout that involves food during your Disney trip. That might be a character meal, snacks, signature dining, ADRs, etc.
  • Use the word "food" somewhere on the page. It can be in your journaling, a title or tag.
  • Use as many photos as you'd like.
  • Use as many elements and papers as you'd like.
  • While the instructions are written for Walt Disneyworld, please adapt them for any of the other Disney parks around the world.
  • Layouts should be made with 100% Kellybell products or freebies (you are allowed to use a template from another designer). You are welcome to submit more than 1 layout.
  • Post your layout into the Challenges Gallery at Kellybell Designs by midnight EST Nov 30th. Participation prizes will be sent to the email address you have listed with Kelly's gallery so make sure you're registered and logged in before posting your layout.

Halloween Fun by Kellybell Designs

Halloween is fast approaching! It's time for all the ghosts and goblins to come on out and play with us mere mortals. Do your kids have their costumes picked out yet? Halloween is such a fun holiday. If you've ever been to Disney's Halloween party, you know how festive it can be. Kelly's newest collection is inspired by the Halloween holiday. It's filled with a witch hat, ghosts, tombstone, pumpkin, candy corn, lollipops, flairs, word tags, coffin, ribbons, iron fence, bat, candies and much more. The color palette is the classic black and orange with hints of green and purple. You're going to love it. Take a look.

 
Kelly's got a new twist with paper stacks - it's a brand new way of packaging paper stacks which offers more flexibility. They're called Layered Paper Stacks. This new pack contain 4 JPG files and 4 PNG files. The JPG files contain the stacked papers. The PNG files contain the clustered elements. You can mix and match any of the clustered elements over any of the papers. How many times have you wanted to tuck some photos under the clusters or add/erase some of the existing clusters? Well now you can. Plus you can use the clustered elements all by themselves on your own layout. Kinda like a page starters. How cool is that? Layered Paper Stacks - check them out.
 
 
Something else that's new with this release are some festive sprays. Did you ever think that spider webs could be so colorful?
 

You can also pick up the matching word arts and page starters. All gorgeous!

 

You can find this collection along with all of Kelly's kits and accessories at the Kellybell Designs Store. These new releases are priced at 25% off this weekend only.




Scrapping Halloween photos is so much fun. It's like reliving the parties and trick or treating all over again. Here's a page that I made.
