Revisiting Fun With Monsters

Remember this post? Well, I spent a few minutes tonight assembling my happy little monsters into their new frames.

The monsters masks were printed on card stock paper in the highest DPI my printer could handle, and then I cut them out. I wanted to raise the pictures away from the background just a bit so I put Sticky Doos on the back of the paper masks.

The frames are scrapbook frames which feature a black velvet background so I just stuck the masks on the background.

So simple even a zombie could do it.

I love the look and can't wait to hang them up in my office - once I locate some more wall space.

Haunt on!

What I Found On The Road To Nowhere

Sometimes I get where I'm going despite the fact that I don't know where I'm going or how I got there. This is an example of what I'm talking about.

It was another of my google searches. I first started out searching for retro Halloween, then I veered off to old fashioned Halloween, then somehow I changed course again to Halloween art. Not finding what I wanted (which is odd to say considering I didn't even know what it was I wanted) I came across a craft list that led me to this blog called Tatertots & Jello. First off - tatertots and jello?? Love it! If you've ever had little ones you know what I'm talking about.

Anywho I thought this was a great little project that even the artfully challenged could handle. The Halloween Speciman Art is just fun and crazy simple requiring only a few supplies.

I also found this simple fix for the dull door during Halloween on Creative Mom's blog.

This Halloween Wreath features a skull with light up eyes. All easily done with inexpensive supplies, this the perfect Halloween greeting for those who come knocking.

Last but not least, Ameroonie Designs, can show you how to take felt and craft it into a really cool Batty Pillow.

Alas, I still don't know exactly where I was going in my search but at least I have a few fun things for the project files.

Haunt on!
