Frightening fetes call for equally spirited invitations. This Halloween, tempt nocturnal visitors with a menacing wide-eyed owl.

The creatures have movable body parts, attached with miniature brads, which make them compact to send and spook-tacular to receive.

Invitation How-To
Get the Owl Template.

1. Color-photocopy templates at 125 percent (or download images and print) onto white heavyweight matte paper. Cut out parts with scissors. (For thicker invitations, affix copies to black card stock with spray adhesive, then cut out parts.)

2. At joints, make holes using a microhole punch. Secure wings behind body with black miniature brads.

3. Write details using a pen. Fold in parts; enclose card in an A6 envelope.
