Halloween is Hopping @ Tiddly Inks and out from the Archive's

Happy wet Saturday blogland. We have a big storm on our hands right now to. But we really need the rain as I posted in my last post, so it's a good thang........so for today I wanted to share some news about Tiddly Inks. Later this month Christy is releasing some new images and they are going to do a Halloween Blog hop in July. I've posted all the info at the bottom of this post so you can check it out. It sounds like alot of fun and I can't wait.

.....................................................................................

I don't have anything new to share with you today, but I thought since I've been missing scrapbooking my family photos, that I would drag some out of the archives that I don't think I've ever shared here on my blog. And lo-and-behold, I found some Halloween ones....WOOT!! WOOT!!! (as Betty Boo says)...and then a couple other ones that I really like....ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!

...........................................................................................

this is a paper paint bucket that I got from Home Depot and decorated for candy to go inside....

this is our nephew at Halloween one year as the hulk.....he's such a silly guy... our eldest daughter....isn't she just so cute...she would dress up and take our little one around trick or treating with her friends....how cool is that for a big sister....

and I have to say, this is my pride and joy home made costume. I made this whole thing from scratch other than the sweat pants and shirt (store bought)....I hand dyed the outfit and cheese cloth to match and hot glued everything together....and used a headband to make the cheese cloth drape over her head.....our little one actually loved this costume.... this is our little niece when she was a baby....I really like how I used alot of photos on this 8.5 X 11 size page....(oh that little white blotch isn't on the real photo....I think it was on my scanner at the time.... ) this photo is a fav. of mine...our little one had to go out and play in the first snowfall in the middle of the night that year...she is actually wearing pj's....lol...I just like how I was able to capture the snow falling in this photo...and it was dark to...the big "S" letter is actually chipboard swirlie thingie that I turned on it's side to make the letter......lol....

this was just one of those photos you get taken on vacation. The little boy and older girl were kids we met while there. They had a condo a couple doors down from us with their parents.....

and here is one I think our little one will cherish later in life. I had her write a letter to her grandparents and we tucked it away in the envie I added to the layout. I just added some stenciling and other do-dads....
