I picked these up at Michaels today. Yeah, I know....it's the 4th of July weekend...crazy to be buying Halloween stuff but I HAD TO. Hard to tell in this photo but these are meant to sit on a surface, and are over an inch thick, about five inches high. How Cool Are They?
Enjoy the long weekend....especially the fireworks.











That's so funny! I was cleaning out my crafting area and came across some Halloween chipboard decorations that I bought last year and never did anything with. I sat down and covered them...in July!
Oh, to have a Michael's near me.

I was just thinking that these might be appropriate over my full length mirror in my bedroom, or the bathroom mirror in the mornings? Yeah I could see them in my home all year round! Who says "fear" is just for Halloween!

If I had the opportunity to buy such decoration I would too ( even on the wrong celebration :), but the halloweenstuff over here is not so cool... so I try to make things myself.. I like the thickness of them, the font they use and the scroll !
I also like your digital American flag ! I see a lot of layers in it : how did you create the stripes ? They are like sunburstflames... Did you use a handpainted paper as a background for the stripes ? Sorry for all my questions, but you know I want to learn more and more about photoshop from my "first" teacher :)
greetings from belgium
