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.
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 is one of the most iconic gothic dark comedies of all time. The Addams, a wealthy family of misfits, is at the heart of the spooky season every year, with the central story being adapted a number of times, updating the family's tales for contemporary audiences. Most recently, Netflix's Wednesday series paired gorgeous cinematography with a distinctly modern tale of fighting discrimination and critiquing colonialism. Despite the Addams' supernatural abilities, the fictional family is based on a very real couple from New Jersey.
Cartoonist Charles Addams contributed cartoons loosely based on his own marriage to The New Yorker from 1938-1964. The cartoons depicted the fictional family attempting to do mundane activities like go to the beach or celebrate holidays, all the while humorously sticking out in their environment. Charles Addams' was inspired by a unique Victorian-era home that still stands in Westfield, New Jersey, which resembles the Addams Family mansion.
My challenge to you is to scrap photo(s) from an outside activity.
Include elements of nature
Include ripped edges on some of your papers
I scrapped photos of my grandson playing under a tree in our backyard.
