SCARY SWEET
I have such a sweet tooth that it is a wonder that I HAVE teeth! I love chocolate… and most things you can cover in chocolate. You can keep your chocolate-covered insects, thank-you-very-much. Chocolate covered crickets and grasshoppers are less delicacy and more something out of a horror movie for me. Butterfinger bars, on the other hand. How was that for a segue? Butterfinger AND horror movies, what more could you want from a Call for Art Entries? Don’t miss this one…
Check out this Call for Entries for the Butterfinger the 13th Movie Poster Contest! There doesn’t seem to be a entry fee, and it is tailor made for graphic designers and illustrators! The assets are even available for download! Take a look…
*Editor’s Note: I love Butterfinger; however, this post is NOT sponsored by Butterfinger, it’s parent company or subsidiaries. I wish it were, ha.
