Haunted House!

Here is my finished haunted house. I love it and it was so easy to make. First I painted all the pieces then assembled it using sticky strip. I covered the windows with vellum that I stamped with the various images from the wicked cool set (cobwebs, bats, candles etc). I embellished with the bats. The little details that I love but you can't see in the picture:

gold smooch spritz on the roof, black spritzes on the white cardstock using the colour spritzer tool and black waffle paper coming out of the chimney.

I put a electric candle under the house to give it that eeerrrieee glow. I can't wait until halloween night to turn off all the lights and have it in the foyer.

This was so easy and fun I am thinking of buying more to do with the kids and cousins as a Christmas house craft.

child labour?

I started working on my design a house that I have dreams of turning into a haunted house. This is an extremely inexpensive way to get the kids involved in something crafty while making a little seasonal decoration. The house is available in the holiday mini catalogue for only $7.50

My eldest was moping around saying he had nothing to do...sooo....I put him to work painting my house.

The house instructions were extremely easy. The key thing is to stick it together using sticky strip. Sticky strip is this magical double sided adhesive which sticks like crazy. My house isn't falling apart. Stay tuned for the final product!
