I gravitated to the wooden H first …. H for Halloween immediately sprang to mind …. so first job was to cover it with one of Lisa’s papers ….
….. then came the spider, I stuck two together using a sticky pad to add dimension …. doodled webs followed, which screamed for a few googly eyes, a small Sizzix lizard and Lisa’s buttons. I also found some Halloween rub ons that Dianne in Florida sent me …. these were perfect. I don’t use rub ons a lot …. but I am tempted to look for more word ones as they are a brilliant way of filling the odd gap.
And then, I got to thinking that the back looked a bit bare and that it was a shame waste the space, so I started the whole thing again!!
Finally I drilled a hole in one of the corners, attached a jump ring and then a ribbon ….. et voila.
This is going to be part of a little pack of Halloween bits and pieces for my friends little boy who she adopted in April and this will be his first Halloween with her, so I wanted to give him something special that can come out each year and bring happy memories back over and over again.
