Scrapbooking: H is for Harry Potter

I solemnly swear that I am up to no good! 
This was an Alphabet Adventure that we had last year, but it came in two parts. First, we went to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the theatre. If you love Harry Potter and you haven't seen it and you get the chance to go you MUST because it's amazing! Even if you don't like Harry Potter and you get the chance to go you SHOULD because the special effects are just incredible! Neither of us have seen anything like it on stage. But... #KeepTheSecrets

The second part of the Alphabet Adventure was at the Harry Potter Studio Tour, which was a 30th birthday present from my friends =) This was my third trip, but there was still so much new content that I'd not seen before. We went around Halloween during the "Dark Arts" Event - I actually almost walked straight into a Death Eater in Diagon Alley. It was terrifying! I'd also never seen the Forbidden Forest or the Hogwarts Express before - we had a lot of fun on Platform 9 and 3/4!

Anyway! For this scrapbook page I picked a background paper that looked like the Marauder's Map and changed the background using the house crests of Hogwarts. To make these I used my die cutting machine. Yes...I have official Hogwarts dies...the Danger Channel has everything! (Danger Channel = Create and Craft. Website link on the right.) Then, I stuck them onto the background to make it look more like "Hogwarts Paper"

Intelligence and Wit

Hard Work and Loyalty

Ambition and Cunning
Brave and Daring


I was also thinking, these dies would be great for making Harry Potter themed stationary, like notebooks, paper or folders.

Finally, I stuck the photographs onto the background paper, made the tag and arranged the letters - I tried to make a lightning bolt; didn't work! I'm still pretty pleased with how the page turned out though. 

H is for Harry Potter: Parts 1 and 2

Unfortunately, I'll have to wait a while to do the page for "F is for Festival" because I haven't had the photos printed yet. That's our most recent Alphabet Adventure and we haven't planned the next one...anyone have any ideas for D, E, G, K, M, N, O, R, U or Y??

Mischief Managed!
