Materials:
- 5.5" black square card (Foundations, Inc.)
- 3.5" square Green metallic paper (Wrapping paper scrap)
- 2.5" square Black paper
- Pebbled orange paper (Fibermark)
- Green and gold sequins, various sizes (Nicole Spangles)
- Punch-1 9/16" stamp shape (McGill Craftivity)
- Kreinik 152V color in 1/8" Ribbon
- Kreinik 150V color in #16 Braid
- Treasure Tape 4"x6" sheet

Instructions:
- Cut one 4"x4” piece of Treasure Tape. Peel back the white liner and center your green paper shiny side down over the sticky tape surface. Then center the tape on the front of your card. Press out from the center with your fingers to remove any air pockets.
- Punch a stamp shape in the center of your black paper square. Punch a stamp from your orange pebble paper. Match the orange stamp to the punched hole in the black paper- the ‘teeth’ should interlock and hold the orange paper in place. Peel the red liner off your card and center the black-and-orange piece on the card. Press to adhere securely.
- Begin embellishing your card. Use the Ribbon to make a border around the edge of the green paper. Use the Braid to make a looping design inside the Ribbon border. Use your red liner to press the threads firmly into the tape.
- Use the Dots to make a random design in the center of your card, over the black and orange stamp shape. Peel back the red liner on each dot, and apply a sequin. Make some of them off-center, and vary the size of the sequins so that more tape shows around some of them.
- When finished, place the card in a tray or Ziploc bag and pour Diamond Beadlets over the exposed tape. Swirl to cover fully, and tap to remove excess Beadlets.
Optional: You can use a metallic pen or marker to edge the card, or to write a Halloween greeting around the edges of the design.
