Your mission: Take two completely unrelated things and mash them together to create your own creepy-cute character!

Think:

🐸 Frog + Frankenstein

🐱 Cat + Pumpkin

🦋 Butterfly + Vampire

🍄 Mushroom + Ghost

🦝 Raccoon + Witch

🐌 Snail + Jack-o'-lantern

🐝 Bee + Skeleton

🦉 Owl + Mummy

✏️ The Rules

Choose one cute thing and one creepy/fall thing.

Combine them into one new character or creature.

Keep your shapes simple—circles, ovals, triangles, and other basic shapes are perfect!

Add at least 3 details that help tell us what your creature is.

Use any medium you like—watercolor, gouache, colored pencil, markers, mixed media, or even digital art.

Give your creation a fun name!

👀 Bonus Challenge

Add a tiny story clue somewhere in your artwork.

Maybe your vampire butterfly has a little cup of blood-orange juice… or your witchy raccoon has clearly been caught stealing the Halloween candy. 😂

The goal isn't perfection. We're practicing imagination, shape, character design, and storytelling—and hopefully having a little Halloween fun along the way!

I can't wait to see what wonderfully weird little creatures you come up with! 🧡

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! You didn't have to do all of that. I was going to follow the directions you emailed me, I just got behind this week when I lost my footage. My camera overheated and I think that might have corrupted the files. Not sure. But I'm getting back on track.

Everything you need to make a book is in the box (no twine) The Holes are all punched and it's Hot press watercolor paper so easy to bind you may want to call me anyway I'd loved to hear what you think
