Supplies:

1. acetate or something to give a little more thickness and support to your ghosts.
2. Sticker paper that works with your printer. I found the white sticker paper worked best for me.
3. Magnets that are strong enough to go through your canvas or glass.
4. Sticky dots or double sided tape.
5. A cricut machine that can do print then cut so it will cut the shapes out for you, but you can also cut them out by hand after your print them.
6. My ghosts designs or other ghosts you like.

Steps:

1. Upload your ghosts to Cricut Design Space and select the print then cut option.

2. Size your ghosts based on your canvas/art size and your personal preference. You can watch my video tutorial to see what sizes I did for each of my ghosts.

3. Make a duplicate of each ghost and make sure it is the same size as your print then cut version. So, you will have two version of each ghost. One will be a print then cut, and a second version will be a basic cut of the outline of the ghost. The acetate will be cut from this basic cut of the ghost outline.

4. Print and cut out all of your ghost pieces.

5. Place the sticker on the coordinating acetate ghost to help give it some stability.

6. Apply double sided tape (sticky dots) to the back of each ghost and place a magnet on each one.

7. Place your ghosts on your canvas, then place a second magnet on the back side of your canvas and move it till it attracts to the magnet on your ghost on the front side of the canvas. If the magnets repel each other, then flip the magnet on the back side over. I found it easier to add each ghost away from the others till you get the magnet on the back attached, then you can move them where you would like them.

At first I was not sure how I felt about adding ghosts to a painting. I really did not want to permanently change a painting just for one holiday. So, I really like that I can remove these ghosts once Halloween is over and no damage is done to the painting. It might even be fun to do make other characters for other holidays.
