Pumpkins, Kids, and lots of Candy..


I finally finished most of my Halloween layouts and I am so glad I can finally share them.  I just love creating Halloween and Christmas layouts and all of the cute papers and embellishments that are out there for the holidays.  I can never get enough!! I think it is because kids at the holidays are so fun to photograph and you get to relive your childhood through their eyes.  This year, Isabel was Cleopatra and Bailey was Wonder Woman..They looked so great and we had a lot of fun at Isabel's school parade, trick or treating in our downtown, and going around our neighborhood.  I only wish I had more trick or treaters at my house as we don't have that many kids in our little community.
We always make the best of it though and have SO much candy that we could swim in it! Lots of good Stuff!!!

I try and use a lot of product that I already have in my stash, but I love to shop for new stuff each season (that is a big part of the fun of scrapbooking, isn't it?) My favorite products this year were:
1. Martha Stewart Punch around the Page Spiderweb Punch
2. We R Memory Keepers Papers (esp. their word strip papers)
3. My Mind's Eye "Blackbird" line
4. Martha Stewart "candy" embellishments that look like little wrapped pieces of candy. Yum!
5. Black tulle and those fun Prima black rhinestone swirls










Thanks for looking! I hope you enjoyed them as much as I liked creating them..Have a great Thursday!
