Damask Divas Nevermore Blog Hop

Welcome to the Damask Divas' September Blog Hop featuring the Close to My Heart Nevermore paper packet!  The Damask Divas' team is excited to help get you in the Halloween spirit with this fun new collection which has just been released today!  You can see the full hop line-up over on the Damask Divas' blog.

Check out this awesome paper collection!  Aren't the colors beautiful?  I love how the newly released Eggplant gives a rich feel to this color pallette.

When the time came for me to sit down and create today's project, I struggled as I always do with Halloween projects.  If you've followed my blog for a while now, you'll probably remember I'm not a huge fan of Halloween.  I don't dislike it; I'm just not into scary and spooky.  So I tend to lean towards "cutesy" when designing anything Halloween-themed.  Today's layout is no different.  Inspired by the layout from Pattern 14 of the Make It From Your Heart, Volume 2 How-to Program and with a little design help from my supportive husband, I created the layout below.

Supplies used:

*Artistry Cricut collection
*Nevermore Paper Packet
