Happy Halloween Scrapbooking 2010

It's Halloween 2010 and time for one of the most fun holidays for finding scrapbooking themes.  Get your spooky scrapbook designs ready for all the fun photos and keepsakes from this most entertaining holiday. 

Bo Bunny Press has a couple of colorful papers in their Spooktastic Collection: Spooktastic Batty and Spooktastic Haunted.

Graphic 45 has the most fun paper - a take off of Alice in Wonderland with a Halloween twist with their Halloween in Wonderland Collection: Which has several designs including a fanciful playing card theme with dragons, the famous rabbit, Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee, the Queen, the Cheshire Cat and all of the favorite Alice in Wonderland characters.

I also want to recommend a new scrapbook album from BasicGrey - Basics Collection with a swirly design on the cover that will add some flair to suit a Halloween theme:

So, take some great photos of your family and friends this Halloween 2010 and make a scrapbook to share your memories!

Halloween Scrapbooking 2009 Scrapbook Supplies

It's feeling like fall and a fun holiday is around the corner - Halloween 2009! I've been scanning the web for scrapbook papers for Halloween scrapbooks. Here are some of the new designs. (I probably don't have to tell you that the best scrapbook papers get sold before Halloween, so don't wait too long if you plan to buy any.)

Some of my selections are pretty patterns, while others have the theme images such as pumpins (jack-o-lanterns), spider webs and other ghoulish things.

Boo - Halloween Scrapbook Time!

Today I saw Halloween decorations in neighbor’s yards. And I’m reminded that even though this is a busy time of year, it’s time to get ready to make a Halloween scrapbook.

Lots of people love this time of year and tell me that Halloween is their favorite holiday. Halloween, as a theme, is rich in imagery and makes a good subject for interesting page layouts and adding the photos of kids in costumes lends another layer of interest to a scrapbook.

So, it’s time to get the costumes ready, and check your scrapbooks, paper, and other supplies to do some scrapbooking with Halloween themes, pumpkins, witches and spiderwebs.

Show above is the Masterpiece Stemma Carved Pumkins scrapbook paper - a cool design! (available in single sheets or in bulk packs)

Or for contrast, you could use some solid orange paper - and save buy buying it in bulk, like this Paper Accents pumpkin orange paper:

For more freaky Halloween fun, look at the Bo Bunny papers - they are really fun! (Shown below are a mummy design on 12 x 12 scrapbook paper and the green one is called "witches' brew")

Spookier still are these Cosmo Cricket double-sided scrapbook papers: on the left is Haunted Halloween - Eerie, and on the right is Macabre.

How about some Spiders and Spiderwebs for your Scrapbook?

Carolee's Creations has a Halloween Collection of scrapbook papers that I personally like a lot. Silly Spiders has a page designed with rows of spiders on their threads and the spiderwebs page has a dark background that will accent nicely with photos adhered on top.

Doodlebug Designs has a more abstract approach to their page layout with this 12x12 scrapbook paper called "Hocus Pocus." And on the right is a paper design with pictures of black cats, witches hats, spider webs, and ghosts called Wicked Whimsy from the Imaginisce - Hallowhimsy Halloween Collection (and it's cute!)

Halloween Scrapbook Kits

These help all of you that don't have time to pick out each piece of paper, one-by-one. The two kits I can recommend are: Doodlebug Designs' Let's Kit Together - Halloween and Making Memories Spellbound 12x12 Halloween Kit.

You'll need a binder or album, too...I like these a linen covered albums: We R Memory Keepers - Linen - 12x12 - Three Ring Albums - Orange Zest or We R Memory Keepers Postbound Album - Hazelnut.

Just found! Free digital scrapbook pages and stickers downloads: You can get some digital scrapbooking stuff here: Free Halloween Downloads

So, when the festivities are over and the costumes are put away, you can nibble on the leftover candy and create your Halloween scrapbooks.
