But first, a related GIFT: Small Spider Web Mirror Frame FREE with all orders placed today through Tuesday (ends at midnight August 9, 2022)! This chipboard set in a mini version of the one in Kristin’s art below! Both versions designed with a flourishy overlay that matches a solid back. This version is about 3-3/4″ tall.

Halloween Tableaux by Kristin Batsel!

Wow! Kristin really knows how to Halloween!

It’s Halloween season! Because I can never have too much Halloween decor, or do too much Halloween crafting, I had a blast making these tableaux to celebrate my favorite spooky holiday. Large Spiderweb Mirrors with Frames are the perfect backdrop for each scene. All they need is a little stand; easy to make with some foam core and tissue paper. I’ll show you how at the end of my post.

What’s Halloween without candy and costumes? You’re invited to a Spook Party! For that tableaux on the left, I layered a cat head image on top of a paper medallion (tutorial on making the paper medallion can be found here). I wanted this scene to be busy and fun, so it features some happy kids, lots of candy, a couple of jack o’lanterns, and some 3D elements mixed in with the paper images (brass moon, black bat, tombstones, tiny skull bead, pumpkins, black cat).

I love these! Beautiful work, Kristin!

Here’s Kristin’s supply list and you can see more photos and a tutorial on making those stands in her blog post!
