So let's celebrate Halloween!!

As it was the beginning of October yesterday, my first job was to change all the calendars to October.

This is the one I have made this year:


The skulls are basically a rubbing of a stencil - the '31' a Gecko Galz image. 

As usual I will add a daily retro Halloween postcard from Vintage Image Craft. This is from 1908.


But in this post I would like to share the start of my main project for this October. It is a Halloween album. I had 4 sheets of Graphic 45 paper in my stash so I used this first. But my album will end up with images from Leigh, Gecko Galz and many more...

I started off my making my album out of black 'manila folders' - you may be able to see from the pictures that it has various pages with fold out sections and pockets...
The design is based on an album by Jen at Hillbilly Scrappin








These pictures show the front and back:




During October you will see many Halloween-y projects on my blog as I am joining in with

And as always I like to add the skeletons hopping!


Happy Hopping!

    I love seeing the bare bones of the album! It blows my mind how you keep up with flaps! I tried a flap card and glued the flaps on backwards too many times!
