"13 Days of Halloween"...Day 2...

This was a class that I taught 2 years ago...maybe 3...I will have to look that one up...my memory is going I guess ;) It was right around when the tear-bear craze hit. Anyway...we made a paper bag album out of handled gift bags. These come in fun colors, prints or you can make your own pattern and design with stamps. All you need are 2...1 for the front of the album and one for the back. You just cut off the bottoms of the bags and seal that new opening with adhesive tape. You can tuck tags, more photos, gift cards, memorabilia and more inside! Sorry for the poor photo, but the title of the album is "2 cute 2 spook"....it's hard to see with the harsh lighting.

Cover and close up of Tear-Bear Witch:

Page 1: Used Krylon Webbing Spray on this page. Very fun, but remember to use in a well ventilated area. We had to spray outside of the store into a garbage can. The store, at the time, was located on a major highway and, to say the least, we had some pretty strange looking glances our way...hee hee!

Page 2 and close up of the Candy we made with cardstock and buttons:


Pages 3 and 4:


Pages 5 and 6:

Pages 6 (our little makeshift graveyard) and 7:



The back cover...the strips were cut and placed at random angles to mimic mummy wraps:

We actually staggered the inside pages. This is the best photo angle I could get to try to show you:


Unfortunately I do not have as accurate of a product listing that I normally do. I could not find my notes from my class, so I was not sure. Most of the paper is Doodlebug, Daisy D's and Reminisce. Used a lot of Quickutz Die cuts and Ranger Distress Inks for this project. If I locate my notes, I will come back and edit this post with a better supply list. Tomorrow we get "wrapped up" in eerie cupcakes....mmmm....
