✂ Step-by-Step: Stirring Up a Crafty Spell!

💀 1. Crafting the Spellbinding Background

Every great spell starts with a powerful base! I layered 1-inch strips of Three Colors Glimmer Paper and 2024-2026 In Color Glimmer Paper to create a dazzling, magical background. The colors shimmer like a full moon on All Hallows’ Eve! 🌙✨

2024–2026 IN COLOR™ GLIMMER 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) SPECIALTY PAPER

🕯 2. Adding the “Amuck, Amuck, Amuck!” Borders

With my Cricut, I cut custom “Amuck, Amuck, Amuck” borders and framed them around the card. (Because let’s be real—what’s a Hocus Pocus craft without that iconic phrase?!)

🖤 3. Brewing Up the Perfect Cauldron Scene

The star of this card is the bubbling cauldron, which I stamped and cut using the Potions & Spells Dies. But we couldn’t stop there—oh no, my pretties!

🔮 To take it to the next level:

✔ I heat-embossed the cauldron in black for a textured, cast-iron effect!

✔ The bubbling green ooze was heat embossed and popped up with foam adhesive for extra dimension!

✔ The bubbles were stamped in CTMH Sundance, Limeade, and Lemonade—because, let’s face it, this potion needs a little pizzazz!

POTIONS & SPELLS DIES WITH HEAT EMBOSSING — ✨ This cauldron shimmers with heat-embossed texture, capturing the magic of a spell in progress.

🕸 4. The Final Magical Touches!

To bring the whole card to life, I added:

✔ CTMH White Daisy Ink to stamp the phrase “A Little Hocus Pocus” on the cauldron!

✔ A few extra embellishments & sparkle, because witches love a little bling!
