(5) Full Moon Witch Scenic Card

This witch stamp is the perfect size for round cards. Here's how-to--in case you want to make one too:

Supplies:

These all come in the Paper Garden Projects "Happy Halloweenie!" kit:

• The Witch Stamp (‘Witch Hazel & Blackie Fly’)
• White paper to stamp the witch on (great quality)
• Yellow textured cardstock (folded in half & cut into a circle 5 & 2/8 inches in diameter)
• 1 three inch section of the Eat Drink & be Scary patterned paper

Things from your supplies/Paper Garden Projects:

• Black ink & clear embossing powder
  
• Watercolour pencils & water brush to colour witch, (Inks, markers, or other medium)
• Scissors
• Crystal Lacquer, Oh so sticky tape, foam mounting tape, (and/or other adhesives)
• Colour duster & orange ink to dust the circle edges
• Sakura Star dust Gelly Roll Pen.
• Crystal Ice Stickles

Instructions:

Start with the sheet of yellow textured cardstock folded in half & cut a circle shaped card approximately 5 & 2/8 inches in diameter. (I used Creative Memories circle cutter but of course another system would work just fine.)

Step 1. Place blade outside of fold

Step 2. Cut circle leaving section of fold intact

Step 3. To cut the patterned paper to size: Lay circle card over haunted house & fence section of Eat Drink & be Scary patterned paper

Step 4. Center the patterned paper & trace circle onto it

Step 5. Cut along the lines you've traced. Trim along the houses (save those little bats if you like.) Repeat this process for the "Happy Halloween strip of that same paper. You can cut out other bats from the patterned paper too. They're all embossed already so they look sweet!

Step 6. Stamp & colour the witch. Pointer for cutting: colour/paint around the witch in a yellow colour so that when you cut there will be no white edges. There's no need to colour too closely. This witch was coloured with Watercolour pencil crayons (which I painted over with a water brush.)


Step 7. Adhere the pieces (houses, the "Happy Halloween" strip of the designer paper, the bats, & the witch) to the card. I used Crystal Lacquer for the bats, Oh so sticky tape for the houses, & foam mounting tape to make the witch stick out.

Step 8. Finish with glitter using a Sakura Star dust Gelly Roll Pen.

Hope your crafting is so fun that's it's scary, :O)
