boo tee
Here's a super fun way for kids or kids at heart to get their creativity on this Halloween! You even get to have ooey gooey fun when you dip your hands in the paint to turn your handprints into spooky ghosts! This is a great project for those kids who think they might be a little too old to dress up, but still want to wear a cool Halloween shirt!

Materials:
Tulip® Fashion Form™
Tulip® Sponge Brushes™
Tulip® 3D Fashion Paint™
65131 Orange

BI15784 Glacier White

– Paper towels
– White chalk
– T-shirt – black – 100% cotton
– Foil

Instructions:
1. Insert Fashion Form into T-shirt to prevent paint seepage.
2. Squeeze a generous puddle of Glacier White Soft Fabric Paint onto a piece of foil. Use dry 1” foam brush to apply a thin even coat to palm and fingers on right hand, avoiding thumb. Position right hand so fingers point toward hem, and place in center about 2” below neckline. Having fingers slightly closed, press hand onto fabric firmly, making sure all paint has adhered. Carefully lift hand then repeat step with same hand to create next ghost, leaving about 1” space between handprints. Clean hands with a damp paper towel or baby wipe.
3. Use white chalk to lightly draw a “B” the same size as ghosts. Refer to photo.

boo banner

Would you believe this cute banner is made from a black t-shirt? Whether you’re making it for your front door, your office cubicle, or your Halloween party, it will be terrific when you turn out the lights, because the 3-D paint GLOWS in the DARK!

BOO-ti-ful Spirits Banner
Designed by Cheryl Ball

Materials:
Aleene's® Fabric Fusion® Permanent Dry Cleanable Fabric Adhesive
Tulip® Craft Mat™
Tulip® 3D Fashion Paint™ Value Packs and Sets
10 pack Glo
– Ribbons – assorted colors desired
– Paper towels
– White chalk – sharpened to a point
– Scissors
– Straight pins
– T-shirt – Black – XL
– Patterns (click here)

Instructions:
1. Cut out banner pattern then pin to double layer of black T-shirt. Cut out then repeat step creating a total of four pennants.

2. Flip over design pattern. Using white chalk, lightly draw over pattern lines holding up to window if needed to see lines.

3. Position first pattern, chalk side down, on first fabric pennant and hold in place. Press fingers along pattern lines to transfer design to fabric. Repeat with all designs and pennant pieces.

4. Place fabric pennant on Craft Mat – it will prevent paint from seeping through to work surface and is easy to clean. Test flow of paint on paper towel using an even pressure on bottle for a smooth line. Starting with first pennant, outline each section then fill in with color shown, applying an even coating. Use a straight pin to pop any bubble that may form. Carefully slide off Craft Mat and let dry. Repeat for remaining three pennants.

5. Measure and cut a 6-ft. length of ribbon for hanger. Center pennants along ribbon spacing approximately 4” between and leaving longer tails at each end. Apply a thin bead of Fabric Fusion on ribbon, position banner section in place and press to secure.

6. Using ruler on Craft Mat, measure and cut 8” sections from ribbons, cutting enough for about four ribbons between each pennant and at ends. Tie around long hanger ribbon as shown.

3. Shake bottles of 3D Fashion Paint. Start flow of paint on paper towel using an even pressure on bottle for a smooth line.

4. Letter “B”: Use white chalk to draw about 1½” tall candy corn triangles onto front. Use Natural Glow to outline each triangle and fill in top third. Fill in second third with Neon Orange and remainder with Neon Yellow. Let dry then add a Natural Glow line between Yellow and Orange. Let dry.

5. Eyeball O: Squeeze a line of Neon Blue about 1” wide around center as shown then fill in. Add a ring of Neon Green around Blue. Use Neon Pink to create veins as shown, starting at center and working toward edge. Let dry then use Natural Glow to outline each ring and next to each vein. Let dry.

7. Use Green Glow for web, adding long lines first then filling in with curved lines between. Let dry. Use Natural Glow to outline entire spider and details then along each line of web. Let dry.
