Hop along with us via the Blog Hop roll over there in the right hand sidebar all month long for oodles of wicked daily project shares and giveaways from some of the other Wicked Bloggers too👻


 It's my turn again and today I'm featuring Oddleigh Lizard Boy and Spider set.  This set of 2 separate digis is now on FLASH SALE and ends at midnight tonight PDT so creep on over to my Etsy BOOtique and grab him before he scurries off👻

Oddleigh Halloween Lantern

My project today is an altered wooden lantern with a hidden surprise👻


The front and back panels are decorated with the Lizard Boy and Spider design which I digitally coloured in Paper 53 on my iPad using a stylus.  The front panel has layered dimensional fussy cut leaves and his ear is a fussy cut layer too.  The side panels have the Oddleigh Spider design, you know it's an Oddleigh coz it has an "O" on its back👻   All the Spiders are embellished with round red rhinestones too.

During the day the lantern looks like the pix above...as innocent as that cheeky face can be👻


 Then the magic happens when you turn on the light at night👻
 Check out this little video of the lantern in action👻



Totally creeptastic how the spider cut out is then revealed👻
Here's some pix of the hidden spider lit up!


 I'm giving this lantern to my 9 year old nephew for Halloween.  He'll love it I'm sure and also coz Oddleigh Lizard Boy was actually inspired by him👻


To finish it off I adhered a black plastic spider to the top which I also embellished with a red "Oddleigh" rhinestone.  The lantern came with the hook so he can hang it if he wants to.
