halloween hoopla!

tonight the kids' school has something they call Halloween Hoopla... basically an inside trick or treat where everyone decorates a space & gives out treats in a safe & fun environment.  as always we {okay, me} procrastinated & couldn't decide if we were going or not, but today I thought, it will be fun for the kids to get to be with their friends & we'll get to see lots of people we enjoy seeing as well!  I had picked up a few non-candy items like pencils, erasers & stickers, but then decided to print out a sheet for the kids {or parents} to pick up that they can cut out & make a cool decoration at home together.  

seriously people, this is so easy to do... I used my Not So Freaky Banner kit to put this together.  I just opened up my photoshop document to be letter size {8.5x11} & placed each banner {they were sized down 37% from original} to fit on the sheet.  If I feel really ambitious, I may cut them all out too!  I think it will be something fun & different, plus some local advertisement for pink trike design ;)

I also decided to put together a little mini book they can cut out & add some little photos too, totally something the kids could do by themselves or with mom or dad :)  after the photos are added you can just punch some holes at the top & add ribbon or string or you could just staple it too!  

this was made with the Not So Freaky banner kit, Jen Allyson's poloroid frames & Deena Rutters Superstition word art.

hope to see lots of our Holy Trinity Elementary friends there...
