(Another!) HALLOWEEN Kit, Related Extras & New Artwork!
Filed under Art Projects, Collage Sheets, Giveaways, Halloween, Nightfall Haunted House Kit, Rhonda Secrist Thomas
New Kit!
It’s almost October and that means time for a Halloween kit!
The new Nightfall Haunted House Kit includes a set of chipboard haunted house shapes (a front cover with windows & doors cut out) and a solid back piece. AND those windows… there’s one round and two rectangular window holes cut to match glass cabochons! (And multiple styles of glass cabochons in the sizes to fit these windows are included in the kit, too!)
Note: there’s another new set of Mini Haunted House Covers related to the set in this kit, plus these covers are sized so that you could use them with the Mini Haunted House Chipboard Set (and see artwork by Design Team Member Rhonda Secrist Thomas below for an adorable Haunted House mini book using that combo)!
The kit also includes a new collage sheet: Halloween Pendants, with images to fit 14mm, 18mm and 25mm diameter round cabochons (and 10x25mm rectangular cabs) plus some for 1″ x 2″ glass or dominoes.
AND the kit includes 6 double-sided 6″ x 6″ scrapbook papers: all 6 designs from the new Nightfall 6×6 Paper Pad!
Go see the new kit for more info and more photos.
New Artwork: Welcome To My Haunted House by Rhonda Secrist Thomas!
How fun! Design Team Member Rhonda Secrist Thomas made this quick and colorful (and small… only about 5″ tall) Haunted House book by mixing the new chipboard covers with pages from the Mini Haunted House Chipboard Set (and lots of papers from both sizes of the new Nightfall paper pads).
See the “BOO” and black cat in the rectangular windows above (right side of the wide photo)? Both of those images are from the new Halloween Pendants Collage Sheet. I love the bright red/orange color (and white dots) Rhonda added to the rectanglar chipboard frames around those windows, too!
I kinda started from the middle and worked my way out in the order of my photos… scroll down just a bit to see the covers (front cover on the right side).
From Rhonda’s blog post:
I have lots of round and oval cabochons, but not rectangular. These are a wonderful addition to create with and you can even get these rectangular frames that fit around nicely. I painted these a deep orange and then used a white gel pen to add some depth and detail.
And a note about the white gel pen: beside the fun outlines and polka dots Rhonda added… the window details on the front cover are bones!
Beside these 2 photos of Rhonda’s project, there’s another photo down in the Giveaway section, where you can enter to win bunches of goodies from Rhonda’s supply list! And be sure to visit Rhonda’s blog for more photos and tips!

Such a fun piece! Love the bones stenciled outside the window.
September 30th, 2018 at 8:46 am.
I love this. I am in love with making houses. Especially haunted ones!
September 30th, 2018 at 8:47 am.
It’s hard to pick out just one detail! I do love the white bones drawn around the windows though. My favorite thing might actually just be the fact that the houses are tied together somyou stand them up and display different sides. ❤️☠️
September 30th, 2018 at 8:54 am.
I love the windows and window trims. Halloween Miniatures are my favorites! Another wonderful project.
September 30th, 2018 at 8:56 am.

September 30th, 2018 at 10:36 am.
I live for vintage Halloween! I need this in my life!
September 30th, 2018 at 10:49 am.
Love the black cat silhouette and the window trims!
September 30th, 2018 at 10:55 am.
So adorable! For me, I would bling it out…. Dark, dark damask papers, tiny sequins, glitter glue, raiding other craft projects and jewelry drawer for more special trims……
Thank you!

I like Rhoda’s ghosts in the window. I just love mini houses being a miniaturist, of course I would but haunted makes it even better.
September 30th, 2018 at 12:32 pm.

Yay for Halloween!!!! Love the creepy head cutouts!!
September 30th, 2018 at 1:33 pm.
Love how she used the Mini Haunted House Covers to make her house multi dimensional. Also loved the cabs as windows. I would probably make a haunted museum book/house using multi pages as well.
September 30th, 2018 at 2:08 pm.

September 30th, 2018 at 7:40 pm.

Congrats Jackie! Love the windows, lots of possibilities! Thanks for an opportunity.
September 30th, 2018 at 9:28 pm.
The eyes in the haunted house give me chills! My son just moved into his very first apartment as he starts college, and I want to make this for him as his first Halloween decoration, and what better than to add those creepy eyes! I know he’ll love them as much as I do.
October 1st, 2018 at 2:01 am.
My favorite features are the rectangular cabochon windows & the widow’s walk fencing. So many creative ideas in her house…

October 1st, 2018 at 1:08 pm.
I don’t have a favorite part – I love the whole project!
October 1st, 2018 at 2:33 pm.
I have made so many different and wonderful Halloween things, inspired by ideas on this website and blog! I must say that what I love about this particular project is the way it is joined together with ribbon, to form a “book”, or to simply stand up in a circular manner- something TOTALLY different than other Halloween decorations.
I love it!
October 1st, 2018 at 2:49 pm.
My favorite details of the haunted house are all of the windows (especially the eye balls). I love all of the different shapes of glass that you offer for them!
