31 Days of Halloween 2026 Day 31 - Halloween!!

              

During October you will see many Halloween-y projects on my blog.

 This is my 13th year in succession of participating in 31DOH! 

That must be an auspicious number!!

I am joining in with the 2026 Crypt Keepers Countdown to Halloween

This is my Day 31.   Happy Halloween!!

Here is the next and last page of my Halloween junk journal.  

This is today's page:

I made the house (one of two) after watching a workshop in a swap group I belong to: I used a paper from crafterschoice Spooky Background Paper Pack,  lace, embellishments and some printed images for the doors and windows.

The house opens to form a box: 

I  made journaling cards to go inside the houses - the houses may also have a couple of tags inside too.

The images I used on the page background and the cards are from Lost Coast Designs Cracked Critters - more of my favourite stamps. 

I will add these journaling cards to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity Challenge#214

Next I needed to add a tag in the back pocket - I have quite a few to choose from:

I decided to go with October 31...

These are today and yesterday's pages:

Here are my inside and outside decorations:

I usually share a postcard  from Vintage Image Craft.  

AS we are getting lots of little trick or treaters knocking on the door at the moment, I thought I would go with this one...

This from a set of Whitney Publishing Co. postcards from 1920 featuring sweet illustrations of children ready for trick-or-treating, set against a jagged backdrop that adds a spooky touch.

And as always I like to add the skeletons hopping!

Happy Hopping!!

31 Days of Halloween 2026 Day 30

             

During October you will see many Halloween-y projects on my blog.

 This is my 13th year in succession of participating in 31DOH! 

That must be an auspicious number!!

I am joining in with the 2026 Crypt Keepers Countdown to Halloween

This is my Day 30.

I have been taking part in the Conjurer of Dreams 5 day Halloween Event and I won Day 4!!

The event was held on Facebook, in this group where there's always lots to see.

Anyway I won lots of colourful witch images so decided to use two on my current page.

I had intended using a BOO dangle but this was the wrong colour for this page now that I chose the witches... so I added it to yesterday's page which was a more suitable colour scheme.

Here is the next page in my Halloween junk journal. 

I used one of the witches on the page and another for the tag.

I used a grungy background, also from Conjurer of Dreams behind both images.

I added a tab and penwork as in previous pages.
I added a spider web with a  blue dangle on a pink pin to match the picture.

I thought I would share the handmade Halloween cards I have received so far:

I usually share a postcard  from Vintage Image Craft.  

This postcard is from a set of eye-catching postcards, featuring yellow and black checkered borders, which were illustrated by Ellen H. Clapsaddle around 1912. Look on the Facebook page to see more of these postcards where a charming detail is the children sending Halloween greetings through the “modern” shortwave radio!

And as always I like to add the skeletons hopping!

Happy Hopping!!
