This inspiration building certainly had a sinister air about it. I ran with that theme and thought, what can be more foreboding than black ravens at the Tower of London where so many cruel and heartless acts were carried out in centuries past in the name of the English throne?  Legend has it that should the ravens ever leave the tower then the kingdom will fall.   I used a brick template to ink the background of my page in several colours based on the foundation piece of notebook paper I used, then inked over the top with a number stencil.  Several pieces from an old transparency sheet fitted my theme perfectly.  I added in some inked chipboard and a few other finishing touches and voila!

I've gone with the Halloween theme for my inspiration with this layout that I'm calling Spooktacular. I've used the typical Halloween colours and embellishments and had a lot of fun making it. Most products are by My Mind's Eye and Creative Memories.

Papers are DCWV and were misted with a Pearl Color mist and Perfect Pearls Biscotti.  I twisted rope around the photo and knotted it at each corner.  Wide black ribbon was scrunched up and stapled over a portion of the photo and across the page.  Black flowers with small white pearls were added on the ribbon and was misted.  I used the Sizzix fence die to cut the corrugated cardboard fence and stained, misted and distressed them to look old and worn.  The glitter title letters were added happazardly onto the ribbon and flowers.  A strip of black furry ribbon was added on the upper portion of my layout (hiding where the two pages come together).  The chipboard element is the moon to the left of my page, below the ribbon.  I peeled off the top layer of the chipboard circle and added black metallic paint mixed with glitter paint and using a paper towel, dabbed it onto the circle, then finished it off by misting it with gold color mist.

 I used the black and white theme for the layout and used a splash of devil red. The Chandelier is my chipboard and that comes from Scrapware.
