Toil and Trouble...

Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg and howlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.
 - William Shakespeare ( Macbeth)


Well my three little guys are probably a pretty far cry from the three witches in the play Macbeth, but they did work pretty hard making those Jack-o-lanterns for Halloween. Besides any title with the word "trouble"  in it is a pretty sure bet when it comes to my little goblins. 

I had the opportunity to work with the new Halloween line Witch Hazel from October Afternoon. A great surprise to find in my box for the month! I love October Afternoon, and think it's about time they created a  line for Halloween...
  24 awesome patterns!
( Watch for them very soon in the store!)

To make this concoction you will need: 
1 Sheet Bazzill Cardstock ( Bright Orange)
1 sheet Gleam of Moon
3 parts Camomille Oil
2 parts Star Thistle
Witch Hazel Alpha Stickers
Witch Hazel Shape Stickers
3 parts Miscellany
a dash of white Uniball pen, 
a smidge of Black Sharpie
Tim Holtz Distress Stain
...assemble with Helmar Acid Free Adhesive, and journal to taste.

Happy brewing!
