A Witches Dome

Hello there. Welcome to Creative Juice, and thank you for stopping by.

These domes are addictive! If you saw my previous post you know my dome-making started with learning to make little books from Tami Bastiaans (@playswellwithpaper). As always, I got carried away and made so many I needed to use them!


This dome is for my 9-year-old granddaughter. She is a big fan of Hocus Pocus, thus the witch theme for her.  The witch has her book of spells nearby.

I made the witch using 4 layers of heavy black cardstock and one layer of watercolor paper. This makes her sturdy enough to stand, with her feet between 2 layers of chipboard strips to make a stand.

I left the bubbles uncolored as I was using the green mini lights.



    
On the back side of the witch, there is a stick from my yard that had some natural lichen. I added some moss and leaf die cuts to cover a little of the wire from the lights.

I painted a small pumpkin with Distress Paints Antique Linen, Bundled Sage and some Distress Crayons rubbed on to grunge it up a bit.

I used several colored mosses on the "floor" of the dome to create a forest floor effect.

To the left of the tree is a skull that I drilled out so the eyes would glow.
