2. Punch a stamp shape in the center of your black paper square.  Puncha stamp from your orange pebble paper.  Match the orange stamp to thepunched hole in the black paper- the “teeth” should interlock and hold theorange paper in place.

4. Use the Dots to make a random design in the center of your card, overthe 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 sizeof the sequins so that more tape shows around some of them.

5. When finished, place the card in a tray or ziploc bag and pour DiamondBeadlets over the exposed tape.  Swirl to cover fully, and tap to removeexcess beadlets.

optional: You can use a metallic pen or marker to edge the card, or to writea Halloween greeting around the edges of the design.
