Bone Appetit: Crafting a Spooktacular Treats Menu in Our Halloween Scrapbook

After diving into our spooky Halloween party setup, I’m back with a sequel that’s all about the deliciously eerie treats we served! “Bone Appetite Halloween Treats” takes you through a visual feast where our festive menu becomes a tantalizing scrapbook showcase.


Materials Used:


• CTMH “I Want Candy” Collection: Known for its playful patterns and soft color palette.

• Coordinating Cardstock & Stamp Pads: To match the vibrant colors in the collection.

• Cricut®️ Machine: Essential for cutting detailed embellishments and titles.

• Adhesive & Foam Strips: For layering and dimension.


Crafting the Spooky Menu:


I started the crafting process by designing the layout in Design Space®, which is fantastic for visualizing and measuring before cutting. Similar to our party setup, I used silhouette houses, clouds, and bats to tie both pages together visually. The print & cut feature of my Cricut®️ made assembling this layout super fast and easy.



Assembly Process:


1. Base Setup: Placed the patterned paper and a cardstock row of houses at the bottom of the pages.


2. Adding Layers: Applied strips of cardstock and additional patterned paper at the top of both pages.


3. Menu Creation: The menu, designed in Design Space®, was centrally placed. It included our spooky treats with photos and fun descriptions, like “Witches Brew - A Spine Chilling Concoction” and “Halloweenies - Horrified Hotdogs in a Tangy Red Sauce.”

4. Photo Placement: Added photos next to menu items and double-matted extra images to fill the space.


5. Final Touches: Included the title, clouds, bats, and a cut-out moon to link this page with the previous one. Added stars to maintain the night theme.


Why I Love This Layout:



This project was not just about crafting; it was about capturing the spirit of our Halloween celebrations in a fun and interactive way. Using the “I Want Candy” collection allowed me to bring out the playful and whimsical side of a spooky Halloween.
