On the 31st of October, today finds us with the October 2017 AnchoredScraps Daily Blog Recap. And, I’m including mention of a Trick-or-Treat Bookmark I’m sending to a few letter writing Pen Pals.

Trick-or-Treat Bookmark Idea for Letter Writing Pen Pals

I’ve created a few bookmarks with affixing Halloween Peanuts Characters on them for including with letters to a few Pen Pals. It is something to remember the day in a whimsical way.   There are sheets of five laminating 4×6 at the dollar store so it is easy to put the bookmark into one of these and have it laminated.  Not to ruin the surprise given these same Pen Pals read my blog I’ll show an image of the bookmark in a later post!
