Trick or Treat {made by me}

{Made By Me Monday}

Trick or Treat Sign

for under $2.00

This is a super simple project that costs hardly any money at all. It actually didn't cost me a thing because I already had everything at home.

SUPPLIES NEEDED:

foam board

spray paint

scrapbook paper

modpodge

glue dots

vinyl lettering

sandpaper

ribbon

(I bought this Halloween scrapbook pack at Joanne's for half off. I have used it for multiple projects and STILL have tons of paper left!)

I bought foam board at the dollar store and had some leftover from another project I had been working on. I cut my boards down to 12X12 sheets using a razor blade. I decided that I wanted the back to look good too, and I already had the black spray paint. But if you don't have paint, don't worry- no one will see the back anyway! This is what happens when you hold the piece you are spraying. I wanted to make sure the edges got done...

_______________________

While your foam boards are drying, create your "scrapbook pages". I just started layering and layering papers and grabbed items from around my house that might be cute on it, like this paper clip! The cute little cutouts are from the Halloween scrapbook pack.

__________________________

Once you have all of your scrapbook pages laid out the way you want them, start gluing them down.

__________________________

After I glued my scrapbook paper down, I measured and cut out my vinyl lettering.

________________________

Put your lettering on and then mod podge your page to each piece of foam board.

_________________________

I wanted to polka dot my T. Want to know a trick? Hole punch out your vinyl to make for the perfect sized polka dots!

_________________________

I wanted to rough up the edges a little.

____________________________

Instead of using a drill to make my holes, I just used a paint brush. That's the JOY of doing this project using foam board instead of wood! :)

______________________________

Tie on tons of ribbon and make a ribbon hanger for the top.

That's it! Easy Peasy!!

TOTAL TIME SPENT: 1 hour

TOTAL MONEY SPENT: none

The first question my husband asked me after he saw this was

"who's RICK?"
