More Wonderfully Wicked And Beautifully Bewitching... Wacky Witch Hats! (2nd & 3rd of 5)

I have 2 more witch hats (of 5) to share....
 

For my 2nd and 3rd hats I stared with basic Black and Orange witch hats from the dollar store. 

I put a sheer orange ribbon under  the base of one hat with a black and white stitched ribbon and on the other an orange boa.

They each have the wobbly spider on the tip with bows. those spiders wiggle while you walk (or ride as witches do)
 
They each have décor sticks I spray-pained orange (over spray got on the driveway and my DH scrubbed it up for me) .




More Black Roses -  Again I used the CTMH Art Philosophy Cartridge for the 3D flowers.  On the top one I edged them with orange neon for a nice little spooky rose garden.
And the glow in the dark spiders for each (even under the rim that show when you have the hats on- Yieks!

 


For the "BOO"  I have a base of Jumbo Polka Flowers from  one set in Orange and the other in Black. On top of that I used an ornamental lace die in black, then a scalloped circle in orange glitter paper.  The "BOO" letters and design base with cut in  Cricut Design Space using a cut included with Circuit Access - from Home for the Holidays - Fall & Winter set. On the letter part of each, I used a clear sparkle pen.







 They each have bows up the back side - princess witches I dare say!  Love the Polka-dot ribbon (from the dollar store)!

Now that's a good Diva Hat -don't ya think?

Wonderfully Wicked And Beautifully Bewitching... Wacky Witch Hats! (1st of 5)

Last week I made a post about "spending too much money and time on shopping for craft supplies", (yes that is a thing - to much craft supplies), in which I vowed not to spend money on (or shop for) any more supplies until 4 October.  I'll have to end my vow by the 5th October because that is when Anna Griffin's new releases will be on HSN (Can't miss that!).

Anyhow,  It is amazing how much crafting you can get done when you aren't shopping (AKA surfing the internet).  Witch leads me into my latest projects......  Wonderfully Wicked Witch Hats!

I have made five hats to share this week.

 

My first hat is semi-spooky with it's black tattered shall netting cover, but ends up being wickedly beautiful.   

A Garden of Black and Silver Roses

For this hat (as well as three others) I used the 3D Flower (rose) from CTMH's Art Philosophy Cartridge.  I did these all in black hoping to make it more spooky but they just came out too pretty especially with the silver brilliance inked outer edges.   To  elegant to be completely spooky (unless spiders freak you out ). 


 I have spiders on all the hats.  The lovely glittery spiders that wobble and bobble perch on the very tip of all the hats (just a hint of creepy). 

I wrapped a polka-doted ribbon all the way up and around the rim.  Added a few more flashy picks, glow in the dark spiders, a few bats and a big bow on the back and - voila  - my first Wonderfully Wicked And Beautifully Bewitching Wacky Witch Hat!




Supplies:

Glue gun with lots and lots of hot glue ($2)
Base witch hat $1 (Dollar Tree)
Gaze black meshed shall thingy $1 (Dollar Tree)
Bats (set of 2) 2 sets - $1 per set (Dollar Tree)

Mermaid Shadow Box Easel Card

It is a hot one here in south Texas on this glorious 4th of July Weekend.  How about a refreshing deep waters card to cool things down a bit....

This beautiful, shimmering, 3D, birthday card was made using Dimensional Scenes - Mermaid Tales

I made it a easel card, added a gift card holder

This is of moderate difficulty using Cricut Design Space. 


I welded wording on to the frame and added and extra shell from Life's A Beach

Papers are laid out in "sync" order of cutting line-up

For me, one of the most tedious parts is choosing all the papers.  This project has eleven (11) different papers - most have a shimmering nature.
