The album is not a bad price. I'll be buying most of this but not all of the papers. I like the stickers.
It will be hard not to buy the washi but it is pricey.
I loved the little stitching things in my Dec Daily so I'll get those again for sure. It's nice having texture in your albums.

I have absolutely no need for it but that 4x4 album cover design is amazing. I love it. If there’s a paper in that design I will buy it in bulk.

It looks like it’s similar to the Halloween collection AC did last year. So while I loved that one, not sure I need more of the same. Hmm…
I was really looking forward to this collection, so I hope I’m wrong.I take back everything I said - I LOVE this collection. OMG!

I would like to order this entire collection, I just love it. I'm hoping a Canadian store has it for pre-order, but I haven't seen anything yet. I love the flowers and pumpkins paper, the moon paper, the potions paper, the houses paper, the sequins and trims - it's all so well done.

Oh yay, I'm glad to be able to see it piece by piece. I really love the checkerboard paper & that sheet that's gray on one side with bats and swirls and such, then purple striped on the b-sdie. I get Disney Haunted Mansion vibes from that one.

I’m not usually a huge PE fan, but I actually love this collection. Plus, I am SO GLAD to see a 4x4 album and hope they will make a comeback. I love doing an October/Halloween album in a 4x4 so I have already preordered this one. Also, I have been searching high and low for years for the 4x4 album page protectors that have the 2x2 squares and couldn't find any so Im glad to see those being sold. I also preordered the page protector pack and will keep an eye out for good deals on those in the future. I love that it includes the 9-square layout that Paige sold on her site last year. I only have one red pleather 4x4 album left that I grabbed from Tuesday Morning years ago (that I’m saving for a Christmas project) so I REALLY hope Paige is bringing them back. Semi-off topic but did anyone catch Vicki B’s live last night where she said that American Crafts had a lot of big changes coming and she would not have albums with her collections in the future? She mentioned there would be a lot of upcoming changes regarding the skus. That spooked me a bit so I’m glad I ordered the 4x4, in case they become difficult to find again.

I joked about her flower obsession but I really love that pumpkin and flower paper. It is gorgeous.
I'll be getting this line- the colors are so pretty. I wish the artwork was a little less simple (she phoned it in on that cat) but overall this is really pretty and will work well with Halloween photos. I like that she did include flowers but not every paper.

I like that she did include flowers but not every paper. I loved that sheet too, but I would have used it for fall/harvest applications rather than Halloween, but all of the little spider, mouse, skull elements make that difficult for me. So I'll just be loving it from afar. The colors are stunning and I do really love the look of the pumpkins.

I love everything about this collections! I had promised myself I wouldn't purchase any more Halloween goodies, but I couldn't resist.
I pre-ordered everything in the collection from ACOT yesterday, and with the 20% pre-order coupon code, $5.99 shipping, and my cherry points, I paid just $90 total.
(I'm not sure if the $5.99 shipping was a 4th of July special)

I actually like a couple of pieces in this, the random dot on the reverse of the tags is the type of print I find easy to use, and I love that black on grey pattern with the flourishes, cats, bats, skulls, and moths. The floral paper is really lovely too, I especially love the skulls in the flower centres. I don't know if I'll end up buying any of this, but it's a cute line.

I know I'm super late to this collection, but does anyone know where I can find it? Any small online shops maybe have some left? A Cherry On Top has a "Notify me" button but does that mean they will actually get more?

I did end up buying the album from ACOT.
Once I'm done with stupid Project Life, I will start doing Fall/Halloween albums again just for fun.

It sounded like AC didn't make enough to supply all of the shops that wanted to buy it, so it's unlikely that any stores will be able to restock it once they sell out. Smaller shops may not have been able to get any. Certain items may be more plentiful than others but it's going to be hard to find, especially paper I think. I hope you're lucky though!

peamused and anyone else who is still looking for this, sb.com has had a restock on some of the papers. I've got no idea if the rest will also be restocked or if what they've now received is it.

Thank you! I was able to get some from scrapbook.com. It was only 2 of the designs but they're cute. I also emailed ACOT and they said it's unlikely they will get any of the oos items. American Crafts shouldn't have underestimated Paige Evans. This collection is gorgeous!

I took a class from Paige Evans this past weekend (Crop and Create Halloween), and she said that the collection is in hot demand but completely sold out, so she is working on a new Halloween collection for next year that will be similar, she wants to keep a lot of the same colours and elements since so many people were disappointed to not get it this year.
We made a bunch of layouts with her collection, plus a mini album (4x4) that Meghann Andrew designed and taught, and the collection is really gorgeous. I'm currently stitching all of the letters for the title "TRICK or TREAT" that Paige provided for her double page layout and it is just so pretty.

Happy October 8, ladies! 🧙♀️8️⃣🪄 I woke up to a major thunderstorm and had to leave under torrential rain (mind you, it was nothing compared to Helene). No fun when your commute is walking + public transportation. I soaked all the way through two pairs of sneakers to get to the train station (and had a pair of ballerina flats to change into once at my meeting). The water was coming down the steep avenues like a dam had gone down "upstream". The thunder hit part of the city's lighting and traffic network so pitch dark streets with the chaos of trying to safely get to my stop without being run over by the early car commuters who decided that the combo of no traffic lights + no street lights + massive thunderstorm at 6:30AM = wild rodeo. I somehow survived. And by 9AM, the rain had ceased. By lunch, clear skies as though nothing had happened. So, I guess the early morning madness is today's story. 🤷

I woke up to a major thunderstorm and had to leave under torrential rain That's terrible. So much flooding all the time these days. In the old house that we bought there's been something leaking and finally we discovered it's a window sill. So we'll need to take the entire window out and replace it. We were hoping to not have to do that. One more expense on top of this money pit.
