Claire has a new challenge for us at The Paper Players:
FALL FUN
Nothing more fun than Halloween in the fall! Especially a haunted house.
BOO!
My kids loved making haunted houses in our basement. They would decorate and come up with spooky stations like peeled grapes for eyeballs. They would use ice cream pails, make an opening at the top so you could not see ....but are able to put your hand inside to feel. lol! Creepy.
They would charge a small fee to neighborhood kids to come through.... so much fun and it was such a creative project. They would work for days planning it! There were also treats and prizes.
When I saw this die from Memorybox called Haunted Dome Layers.... I had to grab them!! Reminded me of their haunted houses.
Since this is a clean and simple challenge I did not use all the layers. Just the house. I sponged the background with some distress oxides and sprinkled with water, and added glitter to the windows, and a bow at the top. I stamped the sentiment along side, coloring in the small images with my copics. I made sure to leave lots of white space!
Here's a couple of the 3D tags I made with all the layers of dies:
