Instructions:
Cut two large tombstone shaped pieces out of the cardboard. Paint them a solid gray, and then sponge paint green for moss and brown for dirt. With the black paint, letter the inscription for the tombstone. After it dries, punch two holes on either side of the shape on both pieces, and string the two together so you can wear it over your head like a sign. If you want to make it stand out more, wear all black clothing underneath.
