halloween concentration game DIY

   Trunk-or-Treat
Every Halloween my son's preschool does "trunk-or-treat," where the kids go around to the parents' cars and get their goodies. 
The teachers ask that we give out non-candy items (which I think is great). 
So this year I decided to have a little fun with it and make my own.  I thought a Halloween Concentration Game would be perfect because it is fun for all ages. 




I adapted the hang tag tutorial to make the cards for the Game.  (and Free to print - can't beat that!)

I used sheer black ribbon to package them up. 
Doesn't the knot look like a bat, maybe?  OK, that might be a stretch, but I am going with it!
If you would like to use the game pieces that I created, just click on each image below, and download it to your computer.  I had them printed as 4X6, and they were ready to pick up in 15 minutes.  
 
 


thanks for stopping by!

    Kara, sorry for the confusion about the backing, I didn't make double sided cards. For the sake of time and money I opted to leave them white. If you wanted to attach a backing, I think a little rubber cement between the two layers would work great.
