A Pumpkin-Packed Halloween Layout Using the Pumpkin Recipe Template

The Pumpkin Recipe Template gives you a fun way to build a Halloween scrapbook page without having to figure out all the shapes and sizes yourself. We paired it with the Midnight Magic Collection for a page full of classic Halloween patterns, photos and little details. The best part? Once you have your papers and photos picked out, the template does most of the measuring for you. Just trace, cut and piece everything together.

Step 1: Trace your pieces
Trace each template piece onto your chosen designer papers. Trace the template onto your photos for any pieces you want to create with photos, using the template to mark the correct shape and size.

Step 2: Cut your pieces
Once you’ve traced all of your pieces, use your 12-inch Trimmer and scissors to cut along the traced lines.

Step 3: Add your pieces
Place the template over your preferred cardstock and secure it in place with All-Purpose Clips. Use the template as a guide as you adhere your paper pieces and photos to the cardstock.

Step 4: Make it your own
Add journaling, a few simple borders, tiny doodles or any other finishing touches you’d like to make the layout your own.
