Welcome to all our crafty friends out there! Marie here and I want to share a little Halloween treat I will be giving out to a few of the special little witches that come to my door on Halloween this year. I don’t know about you but it seems that every year I would go through my closets and trunks to find that perfect witch costume. I don’t know why – but I loved dressing as a witch!
Well, the Gill Robert’s Collection from SP & Company has the most adorable witch stamp called GR Hallowwen Girl. She has the most adorable face! She must be a very good witch with a sweet face like that!
Close up of my work in progress.
I used Copic alcohol ink markers – Sketch for this project.

Technique
I drained a bottle of water.
I allowed the inside of the bottle to fully dry.
I cut a flap in the side of the bottle to allow me to slip miniature candies into the bottle
The bottle was then stuffed with Halloween paper trim.
The flap was sealed with tape .
My matted focal image was adhered to the bottle to allow the flap to be consea;ed

This technique can also be used with back to school themes,
using pencils, pens and note paper,
erasers and any other school supplies can be used to fill the bottle.
