** chekit game tile (hexagonal game piece) – I already had this
chekit on my display shelf. My mom (Valerie Snaith) had previously
made it for me. The stamp is by Stamp Oasis and was was coloured
with Sharpie markers. When I was thinking about what and how to
create the face of my Spooktacular Rapunzel domino doll, I glanced
over to my “inspiration” domino display shelf and knew I just had to
use this piece…thanks Mom …!

Directions:
All the dominoes started out shiny, straight out of the tins. Colour the
dominoes with Adirondack alcohol inks in the polished stone/Tim Holtz
technique. Basically this technique involves applying a few drops of each
ink to a piece of felt that is attached to a handle of some sort and then
randomly dabbed across the surface of the dominoes. The colours all blend
together to create a very unique effect! No two dominoes will ever be
alike. Outline each domino with a Liquid Gold marker pen. Seal the
dominoes by first spraying them with 1 - 2 very light coats of Workable
Artists Fixative and then 1 - 2 very light coats of either a glossy or
matte sealer.
Arrange beads to create arms and legs and thread the beads onto wire. Glue
arms and legs to wrong side of domino, then attach front domino to secure.
Glue wrong side of 1 super sized domino to lollipop stick, attach arms and
legs and then attach the other super sized domino as a body. Glue on neck
domino and face chekit domino (for gluing of all dominoes I used my hot
glue gun). Embellish the body with 2 ghosts, attach a pumpkin to the
middle of the face's forehead. Glue the tassel to the chekit and attach
witches and leaves to the hair.
