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:

Photobucket
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.

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.
