31 Days of Halloween - LeighSBDesigns Halloween Hop 2025 Day 5

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





Find Leigh's main post here

This is my 12th year in succession of joining in with 31DOH!

As I am in Australia I am now 16 hours earlier than Leigh as daylight saving has ended!! Or is it 18? So confusing when the hour goes back and forth!!


I usually share a postcard  from Vintage Image CraftThis delightful little witch was illustrated for a postcards by Bernhardt Wall and published by the Ullman Mfg. Co. circa 1910.


Today I am sharing two loaded pockets that will go in my junk journal.

 
These are the pockets without enclosures. They each are 5 by 7 inches with three pockets.
I have used papers from a Francheville Halloween 12 by 12 paper pack.


This is the filled item. First I have taken out two tags - images from Conjurer of Dreams - I made these tags last year.



Underneath the tags is a journalling card  that I made using the current Conjurer of Dreams Progressive Challenge image.


In the third pocket are some embellishments - prints of vintage postcards.



This is my second three pocket item made in a similar way.






And as always I like to add the skeletons hopping!


Happy Hopping!!

Find Leigh's main post here

This is my 12th year in succession of joining in with 31DOH!

As I am in Australia I am 17 hours earlier than Leigh!!


I usually share a postcard  from Vintage Image CraftThis illustration of children is by Ellen H. Clapsaddle from 1911 postcards featuring a HALLOWEEN superstition of the day.


I chose this one as it has a clock and we lose an hour tomorrow when daylight savings ends.

Today I am sharing a little witch I made from scraps, beads and pipecleaners.


At the moment is it on the top of what will become my Halloween tree.


And as always I like to add the skeletons hopping!


Happy Hopping!!

The top layers on three of them swing sideways on brads to show the backgrounds which are the same as the fourth ATC.

The images used are from the freebie from the  Gecko Galz Monthly ATC Challenge
