Halloween is the perfect time to get crafty with bold colors, spooky silhouettes, and a touch of shimmer. In this project, Tammy Muto of Cheers to Creativity shows us how to transform a simple thrifted board into a whimsical Halloween haunted tree scene using stencils, rub-on transfers, and glitter accents.
Start by sponging Dioxide Purple across your wood plank. Dab a touch of Metallic Purple into the center for a shimmering glow.
Blend purple with a touch of black along the edges to create a vignette-style border.
Finish with a pop of Galaxy Glitter in Ultra Violet at the center for extra shimmer.
Tape down the tree design from the Graveyard Greetings Stencil and fill it in with black paint.
Reposition the stencil below the trunk to extend the bark, then connect the bridges and ground the tree using a smaller brush.
Cut out the Spirit Whisperer’s Dust design from the Vintage Apothecary Labels Transfers and place it so it hangs from a branch. Burnish it in with the Essential Transfer Tool.
Next, grab a raven and butterfly from the Mystical Garden Transfer Set and add them wherever you like.
Add bats using the Graveyard Greetings Stencil to fill the sky.
For extra cute-spooky charm, burnish a few more accents from the Moonlight Mischief Transfers.
Here’s the final reveal of Tammy’s spooky creation:
