Studio AE From Technique Tuesday Blog Hop | October
Welcome to the October Studio AE for Technique Tuesday Blog Hop!
This month's stamp set, “Give Thanks by Ali Edwards,” includes sentiments perfect for Fall layouts - especially Thanksgiving and Halloween.
Here's a layout I put together using this set:
Here's a few close up images and more information on my process:
I've been wanting to play with these stencils designed by Julie Fei-Fan Balzer for The Crafter's Warehouse.
I decided to just trace the stencil this time using a .08 Copic black pen. Looking forward to playing with these more with paint, ink, etc.
"Give thanks" was stamped onto a small manila tag (using Brown Sugar ink) and stitched on with my machine.
I stamped "halloween" and "costume" along the edge using Jenni Bowlin's Chicken Feed ink.
I started my handwritten journaling right before the stamping and continued along the left side and then down the right side.
"Gratitude is a memory of the heart" was stamped along the right edge.
And I added in a metal circle tag. Still love these. They are especially great as a home for initials. I used a 1.5 inch circle punch to punch a circle from the main photo to create a home for the circle tag.

Love your color combination of white and orange, in stead of orange and dark colors that you see mostly on halloween layouts. This is so refreshing. And love all the stamps you used!

Thank you for showing a little of the process on this layout. Sometimes I just can't get my spacing to work out and I love the addition of stamping on the border.
