Using the same technique, attach the black card stock to the orange card.

Place adhesive along the bottom of the black card stock.

Spread fake spider web along with adhesive. Alternatively, you could also use cotton balls that have been spread very thinly. If you have a fake spider that is small enough, you could also glue that over the card stock spider. I’m sure your spider-fearing friends would love it! 🙂
