Witches Gather

Happy Friday, everyone! Today I'm over on the SVG Attic Blog sharing one last Halloween project with you for the year featuring the JGW 5"x7" Marquee and Witch Hat 3D Bow Rocker Card from the new JGW Witches Gather Kit


How To

  • Assemble the 5"x7" Marquee following the tutorial over on Needles 'n' Knowledge Blog - Mini Marquee Signs omitting the lights. To cover the holes I used the solid frame (K) and enlarged it to cover the holes, turning the marquee into a frame. Set aside to dry.
  • Be sure to check out the tutorial on the Witch Hat 3D Bow Rocker Card over on the Needles 'n' Knowledge Blog to become familiar with the pieces. The first step is to move piece B, E, F and G to the cutting mat in your design software to reduce the size to fit inside the frame. Once you have the four pieces cut out, assemble the bow (E,F,G), let dry, add 3 layers of 3D mounting foam to the back of the hat (B), adhere bow to front of hat, let dry, then center in the frame and adhere using the mounting foam. 
  • I created a full size Witch Hat 3D Bow Rocker Card to set to the side. The Rocker Card is super simple following the tutorial provided by Jodi, Witch Hat with Bow Rocker Card.

The Witching Hour



Happy Friday and welcome back, everyone! Lisa from The Relativity of Paper sharing a little Halloween card featuring the Victorine Originals Halloween Kids Stamps. These are the cutest stamps! 
HOW TO
  • Start with a A2 (4.25 x 5.5) cardbase, die-cut pattern paper from MME Trick or Treat Kit and adhere to front of cardbase 
  • Stamp images from Halloween Kids Stamps onto masking paper, I use post it notes and fussy cut
  • Die-cut X-press Blend It paper using Hero Arts Rectangle Dies, stamp images starting with pumpkin, then ghost, then mummy, and finish with witch, masking each one after stamp
  • Unmask and color using COPIC markers
  • Die-cut a mask using Hero Arts rectangle die(same size as the one kids are stamped on) and circle die for moon, mask colored images again and negative for moon
  • Using Distress Oxides Fossilized Amber create a moon with ink dauber, blend light and darker areas, unmask rectangle 
  • Add circle mask over moon making sure to leave kids masked, using Distress Oxides Black Soot, Faded Jeans, and Wilted Violet blend night sky
  • Using Hero Arts Unicorn Ink and star stencil(from my stash) stencil stars 
  • Add stickers from Echo Park Halloween Town Kit and Black Enamel Dots 
As always thanks for stopping by!

Witch's Brew


Welcome back and Happy Friday! Lisa from The Relativity of Paper sharing two fun Halloween projects using the SDS Coffee Break


I love the Coffee Break Set because you can change it up for the holidays with fun pattern papers. 
It's very easy to put together. Take your time with the lid and do a dry run first, you should have no problems. 

Here are two pictures showing how I use binder clips to help me hold pieces 
together allowing enough dry time while I work on other pieces.
