Photo Op Idea

I came across the most wonderful blog (linked from another blog)and I have been getting an overload of great Halloween ideas. I thought this would be perfect for Jack's preschool Halloween party. It just uses one of those cardboard display board from Hobby Lobby (which was 4.99 originally but I used a 40% off coupon)and then painted with acyrlic paint (which I already have in abundance.) The possibilities are endless with this! Think of all the cute scenes that could be done. Anyway, this is the one I saw on the blog.

This is my version (I changed the witched hair):

And this is what it looks like with a couple of little spooks in it:
I am thrilled with how it turned out (and so is my little helper, Jack.) This wasn't hard because the picture is very simplistic. If it were super realistic, I couldn't have done it. Well, I could have done it, but it wouldn't have looked good. For any of you who might not consider yourself crafty, you might be surprised at how easy some of this stuff is! I swear!

You never cease to amaze me. You are the epitome of a class room mother. (I mean that in a good way) lol I bet the teacher's fight over who gets Parker and Jack in their class just to get to you.
