NEW! Trick-or-Treat Instructions and Album Combo

Hey friends! Today, I've added a super cute Halloween project to the shop that's a brand NEW product for Artsy Albums. It's a Limited Edition Trick-or-Treat Scrapbook Instructions / Acrylic Album Combo. This DIY project includes my clear Acrylic Skinny Mini Album AND the simple, step-by-step instructions for my colorful new Trick-or-Treat Halloween Scrapbook. Buy the acrylic album, get the Trick-or-Treat Instructions for FREE! It's our first instructions/album combo! This is the only way you'll be able to purchase these instructions and once this project sells out, they will be retired. So, don't miss it! 

Trick or Treat Halloween Scrapbook Album with cute candy, pumpkins, ghosts, and haunted houses

I designed this with a clear 3.5" x 8.5" acrylic album and my favorite Halloween collection by Doodlebug Design called Sweet and Spooky! I love, love, love all the cute candies, ghosts, owls, colorful pumpkins, haunted houses, and the beautiful pink and lavender colors.

Trick or Treat Halloween Scrapbook Album with clear acrylic covers, cute candy, stars, spiders, and ghosts

I really enjoy creating albums with clear acrylic. The transparent covers allow me to play with layers and dimension. I adhered a few star die cuts to the front and matched them on the back. Then, I added some twinkly puffy star stickers in different colors.

I also added some colorful puffy stickers to the lower section to mimic the adorable candy covered paper on the inside. Don't they look cute?! 

Trick or Treat Halloween Scrapbook Album Page with Frankenstein, stars, a bat, and photo mats

Inside, there are 12 scrapbook pages that include 2 fold-out pages, 2 pockets, 1 flippie, and space for 20-25 photos. Above, I created a ghoulish flippie on the right with the lined journaling card. You can add the date, names, an event, the location, or a silly memory on the front. Then, add your fabulous photos inside!

I added tabs down the side of five of the pages. You can use these for fun holiday words, or to group your photos into sections like "Halloween Party", "Haunted House", "Parade", or "Trick-or-Treating". Another idea ... if you don't take a lot of holiday photos, add a different year to each tab and use each section for a few cute Halloween pictures for years to come.

Check out this colorful fold-out page. It has two cute tags and a bat with a sweet little smile. Inside, a boo-tiful pink haunted house, the moon, and space for "spooky fun" photos!

No mini album is too mini for a pocket. So, I created this cute one and filled it with more tags and cards for journaling and/or photos. On the front, I adhered 2 circular die cuts, then added some puffy shaped candy corn stickers on top.

And speaking of candy corn ... who says they don't grow on trees? In my Halloween town they do! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Trick or Treat Halloween Scrapbook Album Page made with acetate covered in colorful stars

This page is made with the Stardust acetate. I love the pastel twinkly stars, and again ... the transparency! It's a perfect spot for some photos, sandwiched back to back.

This album looks great sitting on my clear Acrylic Display Stand! Not only is it filled with your special memories, but it also makes cute holiday decor year after year. I love that! ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’›

Witches and Kitties Halloween Layout with Doodlebug

Hey friends! It's time for my latest Doodlebug Design Team Project and this week, I created a cute 12x12 Halloween layout with the bright and cheerful Hey Pumpkin Collection. I'm a big fan of Halloween and Doodlebug, so today's scrapbook page was really fun for me. It's simple, colorful, and filled with lots of sweet smiling embellishments. Perfect for holiday photos! ๐ŸŽƒ

12x12 Halloween Scrapbook Page Layout with witches, kitties, ghosts, pumpkins, cats, and bright happy colors

I started with a sheet of beetle black cardstock as the base. Then, I layered the pink Boo-tiful Bouquet (8.5" x 11.5"), the colorful Hey Pumpkin stripe (7.75" x 11.25"), and lily white cardstock (7.5" x 11"). I adhered these towards the bottom of the page, leaving the black space at the top open for embellishments.

Next, I added the black and white scalloped This & That border sticker and the round October 31 Chit Chat die cut along the top. I filled the blank space in with more die cuts from the Odds & Ends, Bit & Pieces, and a few enamel stars from the October Sky shape sprinkles (links below). The cute little witch on her broom is my favorite. Love her sweet cat and the pumpkin filled with candy!

12x12 Halloween Scrapbook Page Layout with witches, kitties, ghosts, pumpkins, cats, and twine

Once the top was decorated, I cut out three photo mats. The black mats are 3.25" x 4", the pink ones are 3" x 3.75", and your photos will be 2.75" x 3.5". Then, I tucked a cute little witch in behind the last mat and added the "Witches and kitties and ghosts, oh my" die cut from the Chit Chat.

12x12 Halloween Scrapbook Page Layout with witches, kitties, ghosts, pumpkins, cats, twine, and bright happy colors

I thought it would be fun to add a little dimension to the layout, so I weaved some beetle black Doodle twine around the mats to act as a web, then adhered a few small spiders to it. To complete the page, I added the fence, pumpkins, and ghost die cuts from the Bits & Pieces and they fit perfectly along the bottom.

This was such a fun and simple scrapbook page. I hope it inspires you to create something cute and colorful with the adorable Hey Pumpkin Collection. Below are the links for the products used in this scrapbook page. Have a wonderful day and happy crafting! ๐Ÿ‘ป

Making Spooky Memories Scrapbook Album with Jodi

Hi ladies! Today, I'm sharing another super creative project designed by Jodi Berg and I've added its simple, step-by-step instructions to my shop. It's a cute haunted house shaped mini album titled Making Spooky Memories that would be a faBOOlous keepsake or gift idea for holiday photos! 

Making Spooky Memories house shaped Halloween scrapbook album with a clear window on the front, a skeleton, spider, cat, and pumpkin

To purchase the instructions for this album visit:

Jodi used the spooktacular new Bella Blvd, Boo To You Collection (links below) that has super cute spiders and skeletons, black cats and pumpkins, and bright shades of orange, yellow, black, grey, and green.

Dog House Shaped Acrylic Album in black with cardstock pages and 2 silver binding rings

She also used my Acrylic Dog House Shaped Album. I just added a new black version of this to the shop that is great for Halloween! It measures approx. 6x6, with the front cover and pages measuring 4.25 x 5.75". The album includes 2 black acrylic covers, 2 binding rings, 2 plain pages, 1 pocket page, and 2 fold-out pages.

Making Spooky Memories house shaped Halloween scrapbook album with a clear window on the front with a skeleton, spider, cat, webs, and pumpkin

Jodi said ... “When I saw the shape of the album, I knew I wanted to use a scallop die to create a roof. I just layered the scallop strips, leaving less showing of the gray scallop and added the fall leaves puffy stickers.”

“Of course, the little haunted house needed a window so I used acetate and cut gray strips to create panes on top of the acetate. Then, I made a little spooky scene with the ephemera pieces and puffy stickers. I cut the spider web puffy sticker in parts and stuck it in the corner of the window.” ... This is so creative, Jodi!

Making Spooky Memories Halloween scrapbook album page featuring rows of candy corn, black scalloped borders, polka dots, machine stitching, and a photo mat

Inside, she layered the black cardstock pages with a fun mix of pattern papers. Here, she machine stitched the candy corn strips and the black scalloped Doohickey sticker together, but you could just use adhesive if you don't sew. Then, Jodi added some adorable enamel stickers. She said ... “The Doodlebug candy corn shape sprinkles fit right over the candy corn border strip on this page.” So cute!

Look at this adorable pocket! On the front, Jodi said ... “I did a bit of zig zag machine stitching for a spooky look, then added the scalloped border sticker and Ephemera die cuts." She also made the cutest tags! She decorated the front and back of each with scalloped circles and lots of embellishments.   

Making Spooky Memories Halloween scrapbook album page featuring fall leaves, a heart, and a photo mat

This pretty page could be used for all sorts of October memories, like ... a visit to the pumpkin patch, the changing leaves, a family photo, a hike in nature, or a fall festival. Jodi layered the Boo Breeze print and the Bella Besties graph paper in oyster, then decorated with Ephemera leaves and a striped heart.

Ohhh, "the cuteness"! I love the sweet little ghost puffy stickers! Here, Jodi created a photo mat with a polka dot frame from the Ephemera Words and added the gingham tab just underneath. Then she embellished with the adorable broom riding ghost and some fall colored mini jewels.

Check out Jodi's fun fold-out page that is purrfect! She added the quirky little Bella-pops cat called Spooky Kitty. Love her! Then, she cut the orange Bella Besties graph and dot print in a landscape shape, stitched it onto the Ghostly Garden polka dot paper, and decorated the front flap with a tree from the Ephemera Icons. Inside, space for 2 photos and more cute embellies!

Jodi's new "Making Spooky Memories" Album is such a wonderful keepsake for October photos and looks super cute sitting out on my clear Acrylic Display Stand. This fun project will surely have you looking forward to the holiday! 

The simple, step-by-step instructions for this scrapbook and the Acrylic Dog House Shaped Album are available in my shop. Product links below. Thanks again, Jodi. I love the way you decorated my acrylic album in such a unique and creative way! ๐Ÿงก

12x12 Candy Corn Season Scrapbook page Layouts that feature ghosts, haunted houses, stars, bats, pumpkins, spiders, and bright happy colors

I created these with one of my favorite Doodlebug Design Halloween collections called Sweet and Spooky. It features lots of cute candies, ghosts, owls, colorful pumpkins, stars, haunted houses, and beautiful pink and lavender colors.

There are 6 scrapbook pages (3 double-page layouts) that include 2 pockets, 3 flippies, and space for 27 photos. So, these multi-photo layouts are great for your scary, and ... not so scary Halloween memories! 

12x12 Candy Corn Season Halloween Scrapbook Page Layout that features flying ghosts, a moon, lots of colorful stars, a spider, a pocket with tags, and a cute pink haunted house

This page has so many fun things to look at, with space for 3+ photos. It has a generous photo mat with a curious little spider dangling in front. There's a colorful journaling card with a cute pink haunted house. Love that! And, a handy little pocket that includes 3 cute tags with ribbons. These can be used for photos, notes, or left as is because, they're adorable. And finally, a hidden flippie ...

... right here! This October 31st folding card has a cute scene on the front with a pumpkin, a few spooky trees, and possibly Pugsley from the Addams family, lol!

Oh my goodness, this Sweet and Spooky pattern paper is amazing! So many fun candies, stars, cute costumes, and colorful pumpkins. I added a round journaling spot that's perfect for the date, names, a location, or an event. And for another pretty detail, I added a black scalloped ribbon along the bottom.

12x12 Candy Corn Season Halloween Scrapbook Page Layouts that feature pumpkins, kids dressed in costumes, a spider, ghosts, and a colorful plaid paper

These scrapbook pages would be wonderful filled with pictures of ...

  • going on a hayride or through a corn maze
  • a holiday event at a theme park
  • your home's decorations (inside and out)
  • a haunted house
  • creative costumes
  • a holiday party
  • trick-or-treating
  • and all the candy!

This flippie is so cute! The colorful candies make it a great spot for photos of the loot collected on Halloween. I added the "It's Candy Corn Season" because ... well, there's nothing more nostalgic on this holiday than this iconic treat. Fun fact ~ candy corn was created in 1888 but really became a Halloween staple in the 1950s when people began to hand out individually wrapped candy to trick-or-treaters.

Ok ... what do you think? I hope you love these 6 colorful scrapbook layouts and enjoy saving all your Halloween memories here. They will make a beautiful addition to any album.

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album with Bella Blvd

Hey crafty girls! It's time for my latest Bella Blvd Design Team Project so today, I'm sharing a Halloween mini album titled Boo! With the holiday just around the corner, I love making projects that put me in a festive mood and the new Boo To You Collection is perfect. It's great for highlighting your pumpkin picking, trick-or-treating, and spooktacular October memories! ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿฆ‡๐ŸŽƒ

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album with ghosts, pumpkins, owls, bats, and colorful pattern papers

The paper and embellishments feature flying ghosts, cute owls, pumpkins, bats, and a wide-eyed cat that I think is so funny! The collection is super whimsical and quirky and I absolutely ๐Ÿงก it! 

I created a custom album using black acrylic for the covers. I cut the word BOO! out for the front and made a simple 7.5" x 4" rectangle for the back. These could also be made out of cardstock.

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album with a ghost, pumpkins, an owl, leaves, and polka dots

To decorate the front, I chose some fun 12x12 pattern papers, then tried to figure out which cute little Bella-pops would work best on my cover. The Pumpkin Pals was the winner with a ghost, two pumpkins, and two little bats. Then, I tucked an owl from the Ephemera Icons
 in the center of the O to finish it off.  

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album Page with an owl, tombstone, scalloped circle sticker, and the words EEK and Happy Halloween

I wanted to use some eye-catching embellishments on the inside of the shaped cover, so I added the Boo Breeze print in the background and a bold owl sticker from the Doohickey sheet. Its black and white stripes and scalloped circle did the trick ... plus, I love the owl with the cute feathers on its head. Then, I added the EEK! and Happy Halloween from the Ephemera Words and the tombstone from the Ephemera Icons. 

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album Page featuring a cute and funny black cat, a clock, and a colorful polka paper in the background

Inside, there are 6 black cardstock pages that include 2 fold-out pages, 3 pockets, 1 flippie, and space for 27 photos. Above, I added the playful polka dot paper called Boogie Bones and the funny little black cat that I mentioned earlier. I just love her wacky whiskers and those crazy looking eyes! She and the clock are from the Ephemera Icons and the "Making Memories" is from the Ephemera Words.

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album Page featuring 2 cute black cats, flowers, pumpkins, spiders, candy corn, and ghosts

This little cat is cracking me up. Such cute die cuts! The one with the flowers is adorable so of course, I had to add "the cuteness" and the "Love this" stickers from the Doohickey sheet right underneath! 

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album Page featuring a haunted house, flying ghosts, a black tree, cats, and a folding element

This fold-out page might be my favorite ... so dark and moody! Perfect for Halloween, trick or treating, and haunted houses. In the background, I used the cat filled print called After Dark then added the house from the Ephemera Icons. On the left, I added some flying ghosts from the Spooky Season puffy stickers and on the front flap, a 3x4 card from the Daily Details. When you open it, you see ...

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album Page featuring a haunted house, flying ghosts, cats, and a skeleton folding card

... a fun little skeleton flippie! I made it with white cardstock and the Boo To You Borders heart print, then added the skeleton die cut on top. What a great space for 2 photos. And to the right (inside of the flap), there's another photo mat with more cute puffy stickers. 

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album Page featuring two cute flying ghosts, a witch hat, candy corn, and a striped paper

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album Page featuring a black cat, a tree with ghosts and spider webs, and a pattern paper with orange hearts

This mini album is a perfect size for Halloween memories. Add pictures of family and friends (the boo crew!), a pumpkin patch or pumpkin carving, holiday parties, a haunted house, a spooky fall festival, a corn maze, creative costumes, trick-or-treating, and all the sweet treats. 

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album Page featuring a pocket with journaling cards, spider webs, an owl, and a sticker that says "memories"

Check out this fun pocket page. I added some cute journaling cards and a photo mat inside, but you could also use this for memorabilia. Add a party invitation, a wrapper from your favorite candy, a special greeting card, or tickets from a carnival, haunted house, or fall festival. 

I decorated the front with the Webbed Up print, a spider web sticker from the Ciao Chip, and a few Ephemera Icons die cuts. I also embellished the cards with a striped heart and a gingham tab from the Words. So cute!

 Boo Halloween Scrapbook Album Page featuring a pocket with tags, potion bottles, a skeleton, bats, and a cluster of pretty flowers

This last layout is the inside of the back cover, so I wanted it to have larger elements that extended off the page. I made a pocket with a photo mat on the front and added some adorable Daily Details tags inside. I added ribbon and allowed them to stick out the top. Then, I added some of my favorite, whimsical die cuts. The potion bottles, skeleton, bats, and that big colorful flower bunch are all so festive! 

Boo Halloween Scrapbook Mini Album sitting on a clear acrylic display stand

Oh my goodness, just look at all the cuteness popping out of this fun little scrapbook! Whether you're making this mini for yourself or as an eerie-sistible gift idea, don't forget my clear Acrylic Display Stand. It's perfect for showing off your holiday albums, and ... your fun memories!

I hope my new Boo! Mini Album inspires you to create something frightfully wonderful with the Bella Blvd's new Boo To You Collection. It's fun, quirky, and filled with cute characters. Until next time, have a spooktacular day and happy scrapping! ๐Ÿ‘ป
