Hi everyone! I'm Dani from PopFizzPaper and today I am sharing a penpal book I made using Serena's two new collections, October Nights and Spooky Pastel. I am a total fan of black and white, so Serena's work did not disappoint. I used mostly the Spooky Pastel, but added in touches of the October Nights collection as well. I also added bits and bobs from last year's collection, Jeepers Creepers!Â

I'm really happy with how this book came out, especially because it was my first one! There are lots of pockets and bags to include fun things for my penpal. I can't wait to fill it up with spooky goodies!Â
If you'd like to see closeup pictures of how I decorated the pages, just keep reading. I also created a video flip-through showing you which elements from the collections I used and how I pulled it all together. Enjoy!

I also cut up some of the journaling cards and turned them into embellishments.
