the return of bug boy

The pictures I took today are bad, I mean real bad, I left it too late in the afternoon and all the sun was gone, now I am a bit strange when it comes to taking photos but to go and stand in the middle of the road for sun is a bit too much ( so you'll have to put up with it [ four times if you read all today's posts])

This Lo is inspired by a photo over on Papercraft Star ( it is for this week's challenge)

I took a few bits from the original photo
1. the colours
2. the circles at the top
3. the line at the bottom
4. and kind of the Halloween theme
5. the spider

We don't really do Halloween here in the Netherlands ( although they do have a party at school usually, but this year it falls into the school holidays {boo}). We have St Marten a few weeks later on the 11th of November when the children go round with lanterns and sing songs for sweets.

Anyway it looks a bit halloweeny because Arthur had had his face painted that day ( he is a clown if you can't tell) and the paint had begun to smear and run.

the spider is from a bag of Halloween goodies that Grandma brought over from England this weekend
