At first glance it really wasn't for me, the haunted wreath and some of the halloween cards kinda scared me... but I'm a total chicken! As I looked further in my magazine I realized that pages 51-66 were in upside down and in reverse order. Maybe my whole magazine is haunted. Booooooo! :shock: Eeeeek! Just kidding! ;)
I'm just not much of a scary Halloween (again I'm a chicken) or tattoo person... BUT PC is still one of my favorite magazines, and I'm sure when I look through it again I'll find plenty of ideas and inspiration. Love the pumpkin card on pg 71... so cute.
After reading this thread, and then getting my copy in the mail!, I rushed off to browse through it. It's not as horrible as I expected and I actually would love to make the candy wrappers on the last page. I just can't find it online at their website to download...anyone else have any luck finding it?
I thought it was awesome and LOVED the quotes from the scary movies! It had some things in it I would probably never do, but it was great to look through. I thought it was one of their better issues.

I really liked the Oct issue. I tried to look past all the halloween stuff, although I love halloween and see other things I could come up with. Page 97 inspired me to make this card. Paper Crafts Inspired by stampnangel at Splitcoaststampers
I absolutely LOVE Halloween stuff... I cansee though why some wouldn't like it though. My suggestion is use the layouts on the cards, and make it a personal challenge and create something else from it
I voted not for me just 'cause I don't do any Halloween cards or crafts, though we do the whole trick-or-treat thing with our boys. I have one Halloween stamp set for scrapbook pages. But then, I don't do St. Patrick's Day, 4th of July, or New Year's cards either, even though I'm Irish, very patriotic, and love champagne. If PC wants to do a whole issue of Halloween, great. I won't buy it, but plenty of people will!
I just got mine a yesterday and although I'm not a big Halloween fan, I did like many of the projects shown. I think most of them can be easily adapted to use other sets or themes.
I thought this was one of the BEST issues of Paper Crafts! Lots of good ideas (which I plan to use for Halloween). I'm definitely not into the skulls and cross bones, but hey different strokes, for different folks.
i hated it! I wanted some more pumpkins and other fall themed things.. scarecrows.. etc. And all i got was halloween. I don't like Halloween... never have. So I was disappointed. I loved seeing Nichole's stuff in there, but I wanted some non Halloween inspiration. Oh well.. I'll wait for the next issue.. which will most likely be Christmas. Thanksgiving gets skipped ALOT!!

I don't get the whole skull popularity? I find it extremely...what's the word I want...irreverent...disrespectful? Satanic? Sorry, but I celebrate life, not death!
It was nice to see some stamping, though, in the stamp it three ways section.
Yes. My sentiments exactly. If I didn't get it in the mail, I wouuld never have bought that one. I may not open it again, just not what I need to peruse again, like most of my mags.
