I’m not a Halloween gal, but if you don’t mind paying postage from australia, fox and cactus have released more adorable cuteness for Halloween. I think murby is my favourite, and sexy killer can call me any time 😂… www.foxandcactus.com/collections/new-releases?page=1They have a lot of planner stickers, but they also have larger vinyl stickers and washi too (goth rainbows is awesome!) I think I need the chicken “witch of the west” and I don’t know why… And you could always document Halloween in their “boo-Ty ghost” notebook for a “cheeky” take on Halloween. Nope not being paid by them, just love their stuff and if I was going to do a Halloween project I would definitely be using some of these items! |

What albums are you all using? Leaving my DIY mini album comfort zone for a spray-painted Simple Stories holiday binder. Turned it completely black. Of course! 🖤 |

PSA: If you still have some Thirty-One, last year's Halloween collection from Prima, there is a "Hocus Pocus" design with the cauldron that would work perfectly for the release of Hocus Pocus 2. I am totally going to add a big number two in that pink smoke puff cloud...  ETA: The final trailer for Hocus Pocus 2 was just released by Walt Disney Studios minutes ago, eep! |

a spray-painted Simple Stories holiday binder I was thinking of the simple stories black and white album. I'm really on the fence. www.scrapbook.com/store/mw-3994.htmlI have a burlap one from them I bought a few years ago. It's burlap with chevron stripes in aqua. I think that might work well for Fall/Halloween.
It's definitely closer to teal than this photograph from Amazon. I think it's good.
I think that might be the one and I already have it!

Decides to decorate my space a little this year. Found the tiered tray at Kohl's and used Kohl's cash to get it and of course I have my Halloween Snoopy out. I have one for Christmas, Easter, and Spring too. Hope to find a cute tray for Christmas. I will put little items on the tray as I work on a page.  |

I am really glad I got the Doodle Bug Happy Haunting stamp and die set. I have been using them to make cards and will definitely be using them for card inserts. I also got out my QK tin that has my Halloween and fall 2x2 dies in it. I also used those on cards as well. I have the spider, bat, bats, jack-o-lantern, cauldron, haunted house, witch, broom, witches' shoe, black cat, cat, ghost, pumpkin, acorn, turkey. Here is a card using my Qk dies. I want to create a 4x6 card insert doing this as well: http://instagram.com/p/CiVRKNDLGBv |

You guys are awesome!!
I just ordered from Scrapbook.com last night. So I messaged them and asked if they could add it to my order and they did!!!
We adopted a black cat last year so I need it all.
Thank you, enablers.

What albums are you all using? I'm thinking of one of the 6 x 8 albums from citrus Twist in either clementine or pumpkin spice. |

I popped into Michaels and got this pack of trims for $6. http://instagram.com/p/CiX5gbcurBt I thought it had a nice variety. I’m sure they’ll go further on sale but I don’t know if I’ll make it out there. |

Here is a card using my Qk dies. I want to create a 4x6 card insert doing this as well: I love how you've incorporated metallic splatter to bring in touches of muted warmth through that purple night sky! It ties everything together beautifully, connecting the cute black silhouettes and your lovely colour work. 👍 We adopted a black cat last year so I need it all. Black kitties for the win! 🐾 So sad they're still struggling to get adopted because of old superstitions. It's the same for some dog breeds, too, I've learned, including retired racing greyhounds. Did you see the black kitty paper (with the typical say-hi-to-my-anus feline pose) in Carta Bella's Hocus Pocus? There is a cute black cat head paper in Prima's new Luna line as well, in case you want to expand on the washi tape design (background is light pink so it'd work perfectly for any time of the year). I'm thinking of one of the 6 x 8 albums from citrus Twist in either clementine or pumpkin spice. Nice colour selection! I've always loved that Clementine shade but I have to admit that Pumpkin Spice is the perfect amount of moody drama for Halloween month... 👻👻👻 I popped into Michaels and got this pack of trims for $6. Oooh, the poison bottle one! Can't wait to see how and what you use it for. Tim Burton x Netflix's Wednesday? PSL? Spooky cocktail night? New skincare routine? 🔮 |

Serena Bee filmed a video with basic tips and flip-throughs of her albums a few years ago that's worth a watch: I can't figure out her accent, but I find it fascinating! |

I just saw it and it jumped into the cart. And definitely picked up some of the Prima on my recent scrapbook.com order. I'm so excited about this project. I was getting a little over the Disney stuff so I'm glad to take a break. |

My husband and daughter went on a road trip to Colorado to see Brandi Carlisle in concert and they went to The Stanley Hotel. They apparently have wood cutouts of the twins from The Shining and the photo they sent is truly disturbing.  That will make it's way into the Halloween album. They also sent cool photos of the rooms.
This is NOT them, but you get the idea. |

I can't figure out her accent, but I find it fascinating! I find her delightful. I just watched the video posted on the last page.
She is from New York/New Jersey somewhere based on the accent. Maybe North of Philly.
Edit: on her website it's listed that she is from Montreal, Canada. Fascinating, indeed!

My mother went to pick up a chihuahua from the pound to foster and she had to be renamed (the pound had her OG name + birth date on file - I assume from the micro chip). Did I push for Luna because I heard she was born just days before Halloween and have been thinking about my Prima Luna order? Why yes, yes, I did. So, my mother now has a foster pup called Luna... *laughs in pagan*  |

How neat! These are going to be wonderful photos for your Halloween album. They now *have* to watch The Shining in October! Karma... I decided to host a little swap and thought maybe people on this thread would be interested Oooh, how neat! Alas, it's way too late for me to enter as an international but I can't wait to see the creations you ladies sent each other. Hope it's kooky and spooky...  |

For some reason, I missed a bunch of stuff on this thread! Here is a card using my Qk dies. I want to create a 4x6 card insert doing this as well: This is really cute! There is a cute black cat head paper in Prima's new Luna line as well Tracking says this will be here on Friday. I ordered a bunch of stuff from Scrapbook.com. They were giving away a free stencil butter so it was like $6 or $7 off shipping in my mind. Can't wait to see how and what you use it for. Tim Burton x Netflix's Wednesday? PSL? Spooky cocktail night? New skincare routine? 🔮 I have no idea but I will definitely be using a lot of it. wood cutouts of the twins from The Shining Amazing. So, my mother now has a foster pup called Luna... *laughs in pagan* Love this. I'm so getting into the spooky spirit. I'm trying to find a cauldron so I can make this craft where they hot glue iridescent christmas ornaments on it to look like bubbles. Fairy lights underneath. My niece works at the Spirit Halloween store and she is going to photograph what they have next time she's at work. Ours isn't open yet. |

What albums are you all using? I started an October album last year, but not exactly Oct Daily. I’m just adding various past & present Halloweenish pages to it as I can. This is the album I got for it - AC 6x8. amzn.to/3S06v4k |

Meet Luna, the Halloween-ish apple head chihuahua, whose name is totally not directly taken from a 2022 Halloween scrapbook collection. No, siree, totally not, nuh-huh.  (Nobody tell my mother!)  |

It’s gorgeous in person. |
