Dracu-Latte

Blog Badge_The Three Amigos

Be afraid, be very afraid, as today I managed to grab Dracula’s beverage, and you know what? He loves latte… just not your usual latte.

I did some research and found out that “Count Dracula, a fictional character in the Dracula novel, was inspired by one of the best-known figures of Romanian history, Vlad Dracula, nicknamed Vlad Tepes (Vlad the Impaler), who was the ruler of Walachia at various times from 1456-1462… Dracula is literally translated in Gaelic as Drac Ullah meaning bad blood.” This man (a prince, in fact) was cruel beyond measure… really creepy! If you take a look inside the cup, you’ll see what I mean.

I used a few freebies to compose my scenario. I painted the words in the background using this fun printable spooky treat bag, I just saved to my computer and then enlarged (to an A4 size) and printed. After this I just used that sheet to transfer the words to a piece of cardstock, painting with white acrylic paint twice. I still want to print the bags, they are sooo cute. The fun ghosts are printable tags that you will find here, where I found also a link to the cute treat bags, in first place.

Happy Halloween everyone!

 

Thank you for stopping by.
