They're creepy, they're kooky, and your layouts will be spooky!

Join us this November for a frightfully fun month of Addams Family-inspired scrapbooking challenges! Whether you're channeling Wednesday’s deadpan wit, Morticia’s gothic glam, or Uncle Fester’s electrifying energy, there’s something for every macabre memory maker.

Image

Dig up your darkest papers, eerie embellishments, and mysterious mementos—because it’s time to get Altogether Ooky with your creativity!

A new Blue Plate Special challenge is posted each Monday (sketch), Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Participants have until the 3rd of the following month to complete and post their creations in the Cookin' up Creations Gallery.

Prize will be a $20 Gift Certificate to their favorite online store (random drawing).....

The Addams Family cartoon started in 1938 and has since been adapted to a cartoon, a live action television series, movies, arcade games and a musical.
Today our challenge celebrates adaptation! Choose a layout from the gallery and create your own version! Also include handwritten journaling (since the original Addams Family was hand drawn) and multiple manufacturers (since there are so many different versions of the Addams Family).

I chose this awesome layout from Patti:

Here’s my version:

I used 49 and Market embellishments, Fancy Pants Designs stickers and patterned papers, Echo Park alphabet dies, Tim Holtz Mic Spray, Simple Stories Stickers, and Crafter’s Square sequins and foam tape.

Be sure to show both the layout you chose and your version!

Happy scrapping!!
