Hocus Pocus

I know we are only at the beginning of September but I wanted to try out the new Hocus Pocus die.  This is a Bigz die so that means you can cut thick material which is perfect for this project.  
The idea-ology Regions Beyond paper was adhered to a piece of chipboard for the background. I also painted the Clipboard Clip with Black Soot Distress Paint before adding it to the panel with wire. 
 I adhered Black Kraft-Core and Regions Beyond paper to chipboard before running the die through the Vagabond. 
I used the Halloween Words Thinlit die to cut a piece of manila cardstock.  Then layered it with a gold Deco Sheet to make the letters pop.  A couple Mini Fasteners hold the flag in place.
Ephemera pieces make an appearance in the Cabinet card background. 
I used the Remnant Rubs on the side of the Cabinet Card by laying it down and randomly rubbing over the pattern.

I hope this little project gets some Halloween ideas flowing! 
now carry on,
paula

    Fa-boo-lous Paula! It's never too early for Halloween ;O) Love that you used the burlap panel to make your clipboard and the gold shimmer behind the 'BEWARE' flag looks great. Thanks for the tip on adding the chipboard before die cutting the images, adds great dimension. Deb xo
