il_430xN.86337348 I think Magritte would be proud of this wonderful Halloween theme journal made by Heidi Burton. See more of her other wonderful creations at Her Etsy Shop. How easy it would be to take a plain journal or one with an image you didn’t love and cut it out in a fun shape, then write a cute quote?

I like the idea of having a notebook with the cover theme for the current season.
