6x6 Eerie Elegance Halloween Mini-Album

I'm back to share my second Halloween mini this year. This one features Echo Park's Apothecary Emporium collection with a little bit of Teresa Collins Haunted mixed in. These papers screamed elegance to me so I ran with it! I love the combination of spooky Halloween theme with an elegant twist. I used lots of flat-back pearls, shimmery paper, and acetate to glam this up a bit. The best part of all??? I finally found the perfect use for that sassy little witch stamp from Close to My Heart! She's the queen of this little mini:)

This a 6"x6" album with 10 pages including the insides of the front and back covers and will easily hold 40+ photos. There's many interactive elements including a new gate-fold feature I designed with a pocket and tag inside, a waterfall feature, accordion-fold pullout, and pocket-pages with pull-out tags and magnetic closures. I've also designed a few new closures inside with jewelry findings.

This one will be listed on eBay tomorrow night ending on 10/18.

I'll be making a video and I'll post the links to it and the eBay listing tomorrow so please check back if you're interested!

Hope you're enjoying the week so far!

6x6 Halloween Mini using Authentique Glowing

Here's the first of my Halloween minis this year. I have an embarrassingly huge stash of Halloween stuff (I have no idea why since my "baby" is 19 this year and we rarely throw Halloween parties anymore), so I hope to make at least 3 minis and actually use all of this fun product I've been hoarding collecting for awhile now.

 This one is a 6"x6" mini using Authentique's "Glowing" collection and a little bit of My Mind's Eye Haunted. I love the slightly vintage style of this collection. I think it works especially well for creating a little spookiness and mystique (HaHa, it's not every day you can pull off using two words ending in "ique"...unless you're French!)

 I have to confess, while I spend a good deal of time on each page's design, I concentrate the most on the front cover. I know, you might say "don't judge a book by it's cover", but actually, go ahead! Please judge my books by their covers! This one has all kinds of texture and detail. The spine is covered in a velvet-embossed damask paper with a little vintage owl charm and ribbon that reminds me of the movie 'Beetlejuice'. There's a touch of sparkle here and there, beading, die-cuts, and a lacy little bat that I know will make an appearance again in future projects:)

 The album is 10 pages including the insides of the front and back covers and the pages are constructed of multiple layers of heavy weight cardstock and patterned papers. There's plenty of room for 40+ pics and 11 pull-out tags for additional pics and journaling. As usual, there's lots of interactive features such as flip-pockets, magnetic flaps, a waterfall feature, pocket-pages, and more.

 This mini will be listed on eBay this evening and I'll be posting a video soon. I'll provide the links to both tomorrow so please check back!

 Hope you're having a great week!
