I saw the idea to make a Halloween Memory game over at Oopsey Daisy, which is a super cute blog! Liesel was guest posting and I loved the game she made! So I made my own set using photoshop and some digital scrapbook items. (You can click on each picture to save the file.) I plan on printing these out anywhere I can find cheap prints online which will probably be Walmart, CVS, or Walgreens. (Check out Oopsey Daisy for directions on how to make the game!)
I decided I don't to want put these on black card stock mainly because I don't have any on hand. Thanks to my lovely high school students who don't seem to know how to keep track of class supplies, I have lots of incomplete decks of playing cards on hand. So I will glue each picture to a playing card which makes them slightly sturdier and prettier. Once again, I am also being green and thrifty at the same time! :)
Since John is still too young to play memory, so we will use these as a simple matching game. Hopefully he enjoys it when we play with them next month!
{confession- with having a 2 month old baby at home, I am hoping this game gets made before Halloween! haha! But at least it is an easy enough project to tackle during a naptime or before I hit the sack at night!}
I link up to these parties!
Thank you for sharing this! I just tweeted about it and have a link scheduled to post back to you on 10-7. =)
