Is Being a Witch a Bad Thing?

"You say I am a witch like it is a bad thing"

Altered Pages Design Team members are having a great time partnering with SinCity Stamps and their Design Team this month!!! I hope you have been inpired by all the great projects this month!

Today I am working with the Window Chipboard Shrine designed by Barbara Rankin. This was a really fun project.

To start, I used my bone folder and created a score-line where I wanted to fold the shrine. Then I inked all the edges, including the fold creases and back. In this post if I mention stamping, everything is stamped with black ink.

Cover the three panels with pattern cardstock. Before adhering... stamp images on the pattern paper, center panel has the Winged Skeleton stamped and heat emboss with clear embossing powder. Print the Altered Pages Collage Sheet "H"is for Halloween on Craft Attitude Printable film. Cut out the "H" you desire to use and adhere with glue stick.

Cover the shrine window with tacky glue and sprinkle with Vintage Glass Glitter - Lavender. Set aside to dry. Once dry add foam dots (here they are double stacked). Glue paper raven to the back of the frame and set aside to dry.

Stamp Pumpkin Hot Air Balloon directly on the panel and on a white piece of paper and heat emboss with clear embossing powder. Using Copics color the image stamped on the white paper. Fussy cut the witch in the pasket and the pumpkin balloon with the cat on top. Adhere these to the card.

Stamp sentiment Witch Phrase, "You say I am a witch like it is a bad thing"on the third panel. Add felt raven and Glitz Large Rhinestones Raven.

Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages. I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent! Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar. Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them. Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA! You have made your own solvent for literally pennies. You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a HUGE jar on the window sill! Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
