Frosting: Reserve 3/4 cup plain frosting for "windows." Scrape remaining frosting into a bowl and tint a deep blue (color will deepen slightly as it stands). Reserve 1/2 cup to use as "glue" and spoon 1/4 cup into a pastry bag fitted with a small writing tip.

Break 1 whole graham cracker in half. Sandwich the 2 whole crackers and halved crackers with frosting. Line up crackers in middle of serving surface. Top crackers with dabs of reserved frosting.
