I started with Seedless Preserves.

Then added some Wilted Violet.

Finaly some Dusty Concord.

An old towel to clean the brush between colors.

After heat drying the panel with my heat tool I used Versa Fine Black Onyx ink and my Hampton Art Stamp press to stamp a few times until I got a nice black impression.

I clear heat embossed the witch.
I also die cut with a circle die from Hero Arts.
Added some Black Soot distress ink on the edge of the circle.

Then pat dry.

 I decided to take the House Fold it from the Stamps of Life and turn it into a Halloween House.  I took to Pinterest for some inspiration and found a few things but not many so I went to the Stamps of Life website and to their gallery and found some more.

House Fold It die
https://thestampsoflife.com/house-fold-it-dies.html

I traced the door from some pattern paper and hand cut out the image.

I used my embossing mat to make and impression of the house.
This makes it easier to line up the images when glueing them down.

All the pieces cut out and ready to be assembled.

Two different types of glue, Tombow Mono liquid glue for the bigger pieces.
Art Glitter glue for the smaller pieces.

I cut the door from pattern paper two times.
I scored one to create a hinge.

A tiny amount of glue to the folded side.

This leaf has two pieces of foam tape on the right and one on the left.

I added the second door to the opposite side and trimmed it down flush.

I added some gray paper same as the tree behind the door knob so I could glue down a enamel dot for the handle.

Inside of the card.

I used Stampin Up Dusty Durango for the house cut out.

I used the Stamps of Life Storm card stock for the window frame, chimney and tree.

Pattern paper from Joann's called Halloween Town - its from Die Cuts With a View.
