There is a growing sense of excitement in our house as Halloween draws closer and closer. Now I know we dotn truly DO Halloween in Australia BUT our little street has some Americans in it and they atarted a tradition of Halloween for the kids that want to play. You get a black balloon and you hang it out the front if you want to join in ( That way the kids dont scare the oldies !) . The kids all dress up - Mine have had their costumes ready since about August!! Then at about 5pm - the ghosts, ghouls, vampires and occasional fairy princesses come out to Trick or treat. Our first year - we ran out of lollies - PANIC - Ran to the hsops and ALL loolies had sold out! So now we are prepared and buy lollies ahead of time. I love it - the kids have a ball and i get to take the coolest photos! Here are some of the scraps from last year .....
The bottom two layouts came from a kit available at
madaboutscrappin. so make sure ypou pop over and take a look - Leanne has amazing value kits!!!
Happy Haunting all you spookies!!!!
