My Halloween Crafts All Year Round dt card on 1 Oct 2026

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity!, a personal crafting blog!

who: I'm Becca S, an artsy-craftsy blogger! About 2 years ago I was on Deanne's design team for the expanded Halloween and other occasions challenge blog. Then participation waned. So she's bringing it back on October 1st...just in time for 2026 Halloween. I like to do 'softer' Halloween with things that are cute, silly, maybe a tad weird such as this wild n wacky designed pumpkin!!!

where: HCAYR or Halloween Crafts All Year Round (direct blog link is shared towards the bottom)

when: October 1, 2026 for #1; personal blog not published until evening of Oct 3rd

why: As mentioned in my introduction, I was on Deanne's design team before and I want to support her efforts as much as I'm able. In fact I still have some Halloween print/patterned papers and ephemera in storage in my craft studio that I'm going to have to go treasure hunting for! 

what: Have a Wild N Wacky Halloween
