Blood Suckers :)

Halloween is a favorite for crafting! What other holiday can you use googly eyes with such abandon? Cute Halloween not scary Halloween - I am quite a chicken when it comes to anything scary! That is why I have been making lots of cute Halloween treats for Amory's little friends. And I have found no cuter punkins, skeletons, and all things supposed to be spooky than those on the American Crafts Boo paper line! I used the Boo paper to make lollipop covers for the Friday Challenge on the American Crafts blog


Supplies: American Crafts Frank N. Stein paper (purple, punkins are fussy cut from), American Crafts Madame O. Ghoul paper (tombstones and dripping ooze is cut from), Heidi Grace -from 2006! (boo and spider stickers), lollipops, and googly eyes
Directions:
1. Cut strips of paper 2 1/2 inches by 6 inches.
2. Score and fold at 2 1/2 inches and 5 inches. It should look like a matchbook now!
3. Punch a small circle in the middle of strip on the 2 1/2 inch fold line (for lollipop stick).
4. Decorate front, wrap around lollipop, and adhere closed on back.

Thank you for stopping by and have a blessed day!

Super fun! I like the "non" scary Halloween stuff, especially for this age.
