Creations with the New Hoot & Hallows Kit

I made two layouts today using the Hoot and Hallows kit that will be released later this week at CottageArts.net. One layout is of my cat, Bits. I used a gradient adjustment layer to get the darker bottom of the photo so my title would stand out a little more. Plus I wanted to draw out my cat's crazy night eyes!

The other layout uses a template by NadlM at www.angel-dreams-boutique Layout Templates 10. Of course, the Hoots & Hallows kit. I used Jackie's Hand and Jackie's Doodles from fontologie.

I actually made 3 layouts today if you count the fact that my computer locked up when I was nearly done the 2nd one, and I lost the whole thing. I was so mad! AHHHH! But I just went right back and whipped it out since all the thinking had already been done on the first go-round!

Hope you notice that both these layouts have nothing to do with Halloween, yet they use a kit that does have a Halloween tilt to it. However, Michelle wanted to make sure that it was useful in more ways than one, and she definitely did a great job. Don't you agree???

DD and Dh and some of her crew went to the state fair today. Dh took photos for me to scrap. Such a good scrapping husband isn't he! So I'll be doing those this week probably! He also took picture of a giant pumpking, a giant watermelon, rabbits and roosters. His favorite is the pig races. He cracks me up. The highlight of the pig races. The little swimming pig, who took a wee piggy poo-poo before diving off his little piggy platform! Ah yes, caught by dh with my camera!
