HOCUS POCUS

It's mid-May here at Two Old Bats and this is our reminder that you still have a couple of weeks to join in with my silliness.

You put your right foot in, you put your right foot out, you put your right foot in and you shake it all about... You do the Hocus Pocus and you turn yourself around. That's what it's all about!

I know those aren't the correct lyrics, but when I started putting this card together, this is what I thought it looked like these guys were doing - either that or spelling out YMCA! Since I decided to use a new word die - Hocus Pocus - I've taken the liberty to change the lyrics to meet my silly mood.


I started this card with a horizontal A2 black card base. I added a rectangular bright pink printed cardstock and layered the printed skeleton paper over the top of that. I added the die cut LDRS Creative "Large Word Halloween" #8321 that I had cut from the pink cardstock and backed it with the black. The final step was to add a couple of googley eyes, a side-tied  bow of twine, and a coordinating envelope and treat box.



We haven't given away the cute Whimsy Stamps dies, so those are still available if we hit 25 or more entries - let's get with it!




Since this card features a large die cut sentiment, I'm going to share it with the others at the Word Power May Challenge:
