A Tale to Tell

My Halloween Mask placed 9th in Spoonflower's weekly design contest. I had such fun designing and making my masks that I attached a story to them. You can find the fabric version of The Lunar Moth and the Monarch Butterfly at Spoonflower by clicking here.

I'm also including 2 free printout masks for your very own use (see below)! Just click on the image to get the full size version, then right click and save! Should print on standard size paper.

And now for our story…


Once upon a time...
There were two lovers. Their love was pure and true. A scorned witch became jealous of their glory and cast a dark spell upon them.
One became a phantom of the night. With wings as enchanting as the moon.
The other was a slave to daylight, forever languishing in the sparkling sun.
The lovers only saw each other in the fleeting moments between wakefulness and dreams, as the sun and moon shared dominion over the sky.
The witch, no longer jealous, saw the anguish of their fate and wept.
The spell had brought only more pain to an already scorched heart. In despair the witch became the softest breeze. An eternal penence to caress and soothe the pain that was wrought.

Thus is the tale of the Lunar Moth and the Monarch Butterfly.

  1. Hi,
    Thank you for the masks, I'm working in a preschool, and it's a good idea, for "carnaval"!
