Halloween Bunco Cards

DIY - Halloween Themed Bunco Cards

Do you want to be the cool kid in the bunco group? Try making these witches hat bunco cards. They are super cute and on a scale of 1-10, 10 being super hard to make I would rate these a 7. 

Here is what you need;

1. 8X11 Card stock paper (one sheet per bunco card)
2. Printer
3. Scissors
4. Hot glue and glue gun
5. Tape
6. Glitter Paper
7. Rhinestones (optional)
8. Black marker or paint pen (optional)

Here we go!

Here is what the card looks like when it is complete. This will give you an idea of size and how fun they are!

1. Here is your template, stretch this to fill up a 8X11 sheet of white card stock.

2. Cut the shapes, use the non circle as a template to trace onto glitter paper. Cut the additional piece from the glitter paper, when you are done you should have three pieces. 

3. Take the circle and poke a hole into the middle of the gray center circle. Proceed to cut to the edge where the gray circle and black circle meet. Do this until you have several small triangles. 

4. Now make a cone out of the card stock, the base of the cone needs to be the same size as the gray inner circle. Just use tape to secure the paper together. You will cover this with your glitter paper. 

5. Please the cone over the cut gray circle. 

6. With the cone set on top of the circle turn both pieces over. You will start to hot glue the base to the cone. 

7. Now take your glitter paper and cover the cone, hot glue works best. First glue one side to secure your paper to the cone, then wrap around and glue the other the loose edge to the cone.

8. Then fill in the tip top opening with hot glue and either place a rhinestone on top or paint it black or in my case I did both!

9. Here is your finished project!

10. Happy Bunco'ing....

Note:

These can be tricky so be sure to practice a couple but once you get the hang of it they go really fast.

I would love to hear your feedback, please let me know how you liked them.

Thanks!

A little piece of history...

Hey Everyone,

This is my very first blog post so if I start rambling......well .....

Anyway, a little bit about me. I'm married to the most amazing man ever!! I have three fury kids, their names are Hank, Penny and Mowzer AKA the Krackin. I will go into that at a later date. I have a job that allows me to use my creative side and I love what I do. I love to make crafts but recently bunco cards are my passion. I joined a bunco team in Feb 2013 and I was hosting at my house. The rule in this bunco group is if you are hosting you provide your own bunco cards so I went on line to see what they looked like. What I found was cute and fun but nothing unique. So I turned on my creative juices and started thinking of ideas for cards. My first bunco card was cute and ladies loved them. The woman who was hosting the next month asked me to make some for her and since I love to craft I said "sure"! Now I make them every month and I love it. I love coming up with new ideas and the ladies look forward to seeing them every month. The ladies in the group and my family keep telling me to start a blog on bunco cards because they are terrific.

This is how I got to this point today, finally creating my very own blog. I hope you come back often to check out the cards and other fun crafts that I create!
