this is how we boo

finally the halloween season is behind us. while halloween admittedly is my least favorite of all the heavily-celebrated holidays, i confess that i rather enjoy certain aspects of it. i do enjoy the pretties - the decorations and glittery things, the fall colors, and even the bats & spiders. i enjoy the costumes and the candy and the fun parts of it, even if the day itself is quite yucky.

so i thought it would be fun to put a mini album together to kind of highlight all of the fun things we've done this halloween season to celebrate and enjoy the holiday. i used papers from allison pennington's for the love of halloween papers:


I also used Sahlin Studio's monogram journalers on just about every page. those are great every-day must-have's in the digi stash. 1 million percent versatile! love them!

anyway, here's the album... it will have to suffice for a glimpse at costumes until i can get a few more photos edited.

COVER

PUMPKIN PATCH

SCHOOL PARTIES & INSIDE DECORATIONS

SPIDER PUMPKINS

OUTSIDE DECORATIONS

CHILDREN'S MUSEUM HAUNTED HOUSE

CANDY APPLES & COOKIES

all of the envelope pages will have additional 4x6 photos of that particular event (like the kids making their spider pumpkins, or each of their costumes, and so on... i just haven't gotten the 4x6's printed yet).

this album was super easy to make. i used a pack of kraft envelopes and 5x7 notecards that i got at hobby lobby 50% off (so like $4 for 50 cards & envelopes). i had 5x7 printed at snapfish and picked them up at my local meijer. then i adhered the photos to the cards, punched holes in each card, and bound the album with 2 jump rings that i had on hand.
