Hi everyone, Mou here playing with a whole lotta stickers today!
I like to plan things visually...place things next to each other to get a clue. So, let's see...I love how the colorful word stickers look next to the cream and black label stickers! I'm thinking that they would add splashes of pretty colors to my layout.
Licorice Label Stickers and Witch Hazel Word Stickers
I don't think I want a big bold title on this one... maybe I'll use some of the alpha stickers, which if I place on the label stickers would look like a title block.
Pumpkin Mini Market Stickers and Ghoul Green Sticky Keys
I think it would be best to have a simple, light background for my plan to work. Let's use
I'm trimming it down to 8.5"x11" and I want to keep the Haunted House at about the middle, so I'll be trimming some off each side of the paper.
I'm going to use a lot of the label stickers to almost frame my photo. I can go crazy with the labels because that's my main page element... I'll add my title, journaling, date, etc. on them. But I need to figure out how to arrange them. When in doubt, I cut out my stickers with scissors and move them around to see which arrangement I like best.
This is one option, but I think it might overpower my photo. I'll sleep on it and come back tomorrow morning.
I think walking away helped. This morning, it all fell in place. Here's the finished layout.
I used Pumpkin Mini Market Stickers on Licorice Label Stickers to create a title block.
And added the date...
Journaled...
And cut stickers up to embellish...
Hope you enjoyed today's tutorial! Share your creations with Witch Hazel sticker to the OA Flickr Group so we can all be inspired!
Linda, I dated it in the future as the layout is about my daughter choosing a character and costume for this year's Halloween :)

Thank you for sharing this! I love that there are so many different elements to look at, and they all fit together perfectly! For people who like to journal (like me) this is a fantastic way to really find one main point to focus on, yet also have the chance to explore it in different ways. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!

This is super cute!! I love the way you used all the labels, I never would've thought of that. I am kinda confused though...why is this dated in the future? lol!
