Here's a page using those Rusty Pickle Cap'n Jack papers:

Great page, sealion. Are those chip board letters or stickers you used for the title?

They are chipboad letters that I painted with crackle paint then glazed then inked! lol The "old paper' paint was a weird pale green color so I went over them with some gold glaze but I still didn't like how they looked so I rubbed them with some caramel ink.

PS- If you are looking for a fun scrapping board to hang out at try ScrapFreak.com :) (My username there is HappyStamper)

Thanks for the scrapping board info, sealion. I'll have to check that out as well.
Great tip for the chipboard letters...I love crackle paint and you did a great job creating the "old paper" look.

Since you all have been so wonderfully active.. I think it's about time I sticky this thread so it's easier for everyone to find. 

  Keep up the fantastic work!

I know that some fall faires have Halloween themed weekends. I just took a great class at my local store creating Halloween theme layouts using the "Frightful" line from Little Yellow Bicycle. The embellishments are adorable! Check them out.

And for all of you, who don't have the time to buy cut and paste.. you can make it online and print it.

Thanks sealion and susannah!

Awesome ideas all ... I'm certainly going to be "scraplifting" some!

I played with the Glimmer Mist from Tattered Angels today - you spray on shiny spatters on your papers (I'm actually going to try it on some fairy photos and see how it looks).  I'll let you know as soon as I post some new layouts online.

As for online shopping ... I've been VERY pleased with www.scrapbook.com.  Their customer service is great, and everything comes packaged well - even the papers!

Hmm...I need to figure out how to scan 12 x 12 pages!  I haven't scrapped TRF from this year yet, but I've done the 3 years prior.  My favorite from last year is the Top 10 Things My Daughter Learned at TRF.  I'll post it as soon as I figure out how to scan it.  I saw that someone just took a photo of the whole page.  Any other suggestions?

I use an inexpensive and very easy to use stitching program by ArcSoft called Panaorama Maker. There is a free trial period so check it out.

Have an awesome time susannah ... that looks like a neat place to escape to and scrap!  =)

I actually finished a faire album before New Year's - although I'm still way WAY behind, all my 2003-2004 faire photos are now in a massive album!  And I'm halfway finished with 2005.  I'll try to upload photos if any of you are interested in seeing the new pages.
