SWEET & SPOOKY DISC BOUND MINI ALBUM | with Niella

Hi BOO crew! Come one, come all! With just three weeks to go until Halloween; we have officially gone into countdown mode! Eeeek, SO hex-citing! So gather around sweet witches, crafty ghoulfriends, darling wizards and cute ghosties whilst we take a look at what I've created for this week's project! A 6x4 disc-bound mini album with cutie pie Sweet & Spooky Halloween collection! Check out the full album in my video at the end of my post, yay!

I start my covering two pieces of 6x4 chipboard with a 1.75 x 6 chipboard piece as the spine onto a 12x12 patterned paper, in this case I used the how sweet it is paper. I love the lilac/lavender colour and all the candies.  Score the paper on both sides for the spine and that helps close the cover.  Line the inside of the cover with a contracting piece of paper. Next, I punched some disc insert holes for the pages. You can also punch holes and use ring binders for the pages if you like. Give it a go!

Time to add the special effects to the cover! Here I like to add coordinating cardstock, then decorate with sprinkles and here I used some washi tape for the Halloween tab, so cute! I topped off the cover with the Spiderlings doodle-pop! Darling!

Don't you just love how the cascading pages look! I start from the bottom up and each page in front is smaller than the last page. This makes sure you can see peek-a-boo pages when all the pages are piled to close your mini album.  I loved using the 6x6 paper pad, odds n ends ephemera, icons and all the pretties in this collection to decorate the front and back of every page. You can make your album as fill as you like.  The good thing about loose bound pages is you can add or remove pages.  Fun!

I love all the characters and fun elements of this collection.  Each face has a personality and every bit of this collection, like all Doodlebug collections, matches perfectly.  The hardest part is what you'll choose to use and that is why I love to make lots of the versions because each collection is plentiful!  What is your fave Doodlebug Halloween collection?

Thank you again for visiting crafty crew! I hope you've found inspiration today! Please remember to tag us in our your Socials when you create with Doodlebug so we can all admire your creativity! We love seeing your creations. Until next time; doodle BOO!
