Authentique Halloween mini-album

A recent Facebook post by the people at Authentique (great new paper line, among other things) provided a tutorial for a mini-album using their "Glowing" paper pad.    The surprise element in this album is that the pages are flattened toilet paper rolls ---painted orange and black and stapled at the ends, in my case.

I was able to use some more of the Halloween embellishments sent to me by Lynn Stevens, too.

Very cool! Your project really showcases this gorgeous paper. You and I must be on the same wave length as I featured Authentique's papers as well on my blog. I was like a kid in a candy store the day I found these papers....bought waaaay to much!

Great job, Evelyn! This book turned out adorably. Just the right amount of embellies and room for trick or treating pics. You're back in fightin' form! Denise B.

Your album turned out fabulous. I keep forgetting to save the rolls. Like your theme and the paper. I also like that new paper company. Darlene
