You’re Invited To A Costume Party

You're invited to a costume party (Hand lettered out of M&Ms, KitKats, Reeses, Milk Duds, and Butterfingers by Emily PG Erickson)

You’re invited to a costume party

I decided to combine two creative community prompts for today’s lettering. Behold: Something that gives me anxiety + Halloween-related phrase made with candy. 🙀🎃🍬⁣⁣

⁣⁣

When I was a kiddo and somewhat less anxious about Halloween, m&ms were my favorite candy, and I loved the heck out of my mouse costume. 🐭⁣⁣

PS A question occurred to me during the making (and demolition) of this post: Does anyone else find that they eat way more net candy thanks to the “miniature size” than they would when “fun size” was all the rage? They’re just sooo tiny I always think, “Eh, what’s one more?”⁣
