.. Oh My! Halloween is almost here!
This month there are three ways you can use my design project or, as the title
says, three treats in one.
1.
Display as a Centerpiece for a mantle or table (that is against a wall so the
back does not show).
2.
Use as an invitation to a Halloween event or party.
3.
Create a spooky scrapbook page.

Instructions:
1.
Begin by stamping the children and Dracula stamps on white cardstock.
Color stamps and cut out (see picture). On a piece of yellow cardstock, stamp
the hanging spider in black ink from the Inky Antics (childrens stamp) and set
them aside for later.
2.
Take a piece of yellow & black cardstock to trace the house template on.
Later, the pieces will be glued together to give house strength. Add a piece of
folded cardstock to back of house (as in the back of a stand up picture frame)
and glue it in place behind the door. Use a white or light gray paper to cover
yellow cardstock in doorway to write the invitation on or glue photo in.
3.
Use your Sizzlit to die cut three ghosts onto white cardstock, one
tombstone in gray for the RIP, and one BOO in black card stock, which will be
glued over a piece of yellow cardstock and one fence in gray or white. Cut out
the tree in black cardstock after folding cardstock in half and placing template
on the fold line to cut it out.
4.
Cut out windows and door on house. Place one ghost in upper window and
then glue the yellow and black cardstock together. Glue bats and Dracula in
windows. Glue one ghost hanging out of the door and the other peeking around the
side of the house. On the long strip next to the house template, glue the kids
with pumpkins, the tree, and the RIP tombstone next to it. On other side of
house, glue the fence attaching it to the back of the house.
Enjoy
and let me know if you liked your haunted house and how you are using it
