Halloween and Christmas!

The owner of Back Porch Memories asked me to do a Halloween mini album kit for her store. I had a blast picking out all the goodies and playing for two whole days until I came up with this!  FYI – the kits are sold out, but you can enjoy the eye candy here.

Tombstones are tags that come out of the grass to journal on.  Moon has 3 hidden journal or picture spots that rotate out.

I had a blast making it and couldn’t wait to share.  I have some other projects too that I’m getting ready for Christmas – here’s a mitten and snowflake garland made from two Maya Road chipboard books. Pardon the horrible pictures – welcome to winter in Alaska and no good light!
