Welcome to the Halloween Blog Hop! So glad you could join us today! I hope you are having a blast and picking up some great ideas along the way.

For my Halloween project I made a little photo stand. I found the pattern from Split Coast Stampers. They have some fabulous ideas out there to fit anyone's needs - too many to choose from actually!

Front view of the photo stand. It consists of two coasters decorated with pattern paper. One side has the witch that I created from Scraptastical Kreations. The other side is a spot to put a picture. I plan on putting my daughter's picture on here of her in her Halloween costume... I just have to print it. lol.

Back of the photo stand to see the nifty paper design....

And... the close-up of my bear .

I really hope you've enjoyed my project - I can't to get it on my desk at work! Now you'll want to hop on over to Staci's blog. I'm also posting the entire line-up in case you get lost along the way. See below the list for the giveaways!

    Aw, this is so cute! I'm a sucker for those bears, yet I've never worked with them, myself. I guess I'm just gonna have to buckle down and buy some files if I wanna make cute projects like these, huh? ;0) Love it! I'm a follower.

    I think this is a really terrific idea ! Is it possible to assemble them after into an album using the binder system so you have all the various years together, kinda like a scrapbook but BETTER!
    Thanks for sharing the creepy spiders, already a follower. Claire
