I LOVE Halloween. I love the costumes, the fun... and yes, I admit, the candy! I'm the mom in the neighborhood who stalks all of the cute little trick or treaters for pictures. Luckily they're used to it. I was sorting through some old Halloween pictures, when I came up with the idea to create a mini album documenting my daughter's costumes through the years. It was so fun to look back! Take a peek...
The album base is a Jillibean Soup Accordion Album and the papers and stickers are all from Doodlebug Design's Monster Mania. Leave it to Doodlebug to make a spider cute!I also added a little twine from the Twinery... It really goes with everything! I also couldn't resist "Scaredy" the Doodlepop... he coordinated perfectly with the Blue's Clues Costume!
I tried to keep the focus mainly on the pictures...but couldn't resist adding some cute Doodlepops and the Sugar Coated Stickers!For the back of the album, I fussy-cut the monsters from one of the journaling cards.
Products Used:
Album: Jillibean Soup Accordion Album
From Doodlebug Monster Mania: Monster Stripe, Assorted Cut-Outs, Card stock Diecuts, Tricky Tweed, Pumpkin Patch, Monster Dots, Hallows Eve, Monster Mania, Monster Chat, Spinning Spiders, Sugar Coated Cardstock Stickers Icons and Fancy Frills

This really was so much fun to create...it made me smile to look back at how little she was! Now that she's a teen, she's decided that Trick or Treating is still good (Yippee!!) so I'll have to add on a few panels going forward! Hope everyone has a wonderful Halloween... don't eat too much candy!
Oh my word, Kathy! This is absolutely adorable! LOVE these stickers and papers! What a wonderful keepsake! :D
