Hello Crafty Friends and Welcome! While creating my previous Spinner Square Pop-Up card, I came up with another idea using that pop-up die set. My card today features Karen Burniston's Spinner Square Pop-Up along with her Witch and Cauldron die set.
For this card, I started with an A2 sized side fold card base using heavy weight (110lb) black cardstock. I recently picked up some great Halloween patterned paper from Echo Park called Monster Mash. I used the green bubbly paper and the scary eyes paper for my card. I added a border of skulls using Karen Burniston's Halloween Borders die set.

I die cut all the pieces from the Witch and Cauldron set using heavy weight smooth white cardstock and a shiny black cardstock. For the white pieces, I colored everything in using Copic markers.
When I created the cauldron with the green bubbling goo, I wanted to add some ruby slippers, like the Witch actually caught Dorothy! I know, I know....that's just evil, but then, so is the Witch!So I used the Witches books and drew out the ruby slippers. Then I colored them in with Copic markers. I cut them out and added them to the cauldron, adding Glitter Gel after to give them a sparkly look.
I die cut the monkey from Karen Burniston's Monkey and Lion die set. I looked up what colors to use for the Witches flying monkey and from the original Wizard of Oz, they appeared to have a blue looking face with a grayish brown body. So that's what I went with. Of course my monkey needed wings, so I used Karen Burniston's Knight and Dragon die set and cut the monkey wings from the Dragon die set. I added some glitter gel to the wings to add a little dimension. For the front of my card, I wanted to create the sign from the Haunted Forest. I measured how much space I was going to have on the wider side of the front of the card. Then I cut out a piece of cardstock that size.
