Halloween is FAST approaching, so I want YOU to check out our tutorial and create your own Paint Splat Witch Face pieces with your child today! It’s BEWITCHING fun that is super easy to recreate!!!
It’s our favorite “paint splatter” technique incorporated into Halloween craft time!!!
HOW TO MAKE IT HAPPEN:
To create my Halloween Themed Paint Splat Witch Face, all I did was take some basic white cardstock paper and Lime Green Puffy Paint to make the “head” of the witch. All I did was fold my white cardstock paper in half, opened it back up and squirted several squiggles of green craft paint ON ONE SIDE of the white cardstock, before closing it up again.
Once the paper was closed for the second time, I gently took my hand and “caressed” the green paint inside the folded paper, so it made a fun symmetrical print design on both sides {please keep in mind – paint might ooze from the sides of the cardstock, so be sure to work in an area that can get dirty!}

Once I was done with the above step, I opened my folded paper back up and saw the BEGINNING of what my witch’s face would eventually be. I decided to throw a few sprinkles a green glitter but this step is completely optional. From here, your child is going to decorate their “one of kind splat” to bring it to life and give it that “witchy” look.
So next up, I grabbed some black, green and purple cardstock paper, along with my scissors. I cut out a basic witch hat from the black, a long triangular nose from the green and some stringy stick hair from the purple.
Now you can either use basic white school glue to secure them in place on the paper OR if you work fast, just lay your cut-out pieces on top of the wet paint splat, so it will all dry together. Either step works!
Finally – the last steps were adding the giant wiggle eyes {again, either glue or laying them on the wet paint} and a squiggle of black puffy paint for the mouth.
Once finished with your custom WITCH ART masterpiece, set aside it to let it dry completely, before displaying proudly! And of course – repeat as many times as you like! No two pieces will be the same and I think that’s what makes it even more fun!
