Step 1.

Prepare 200g of light orange (yellow and

red gels) and 120g of light lime green.

Prepare 10-15g each of light pink (white

and a little red modelling paste), purple

(blue and red gels), yellow, leaf green and

chestnut. Wrap until use.

Eyes

Steps 2a-f

For the ghost, place black paste into the

pearl mould and press with a ball tool.

Extract. Press on one end for an egg

shape then gently against each other.

With a mini ball tool, mark the pupils –

make an error and the pumpkins will be

cross-eyed. Roll small balls of paste and

press into the holes. For the cat only,

press both sides for an almond shape.

Use the dresden tool to indent and add

a string of black paste. With a mini ball

tool dipped in white, add a point of light.

Repeat with all colours and sizes.

Witch

Step 3.

Flatten a 40g ball of orange paste. With

the silicone shaper, make holes in the

middle of the top and bottom. With the

dresden tool, mark three equidistant

indents around the top hole. Mark

another three halving each third. Trace

ribs from top to bottom then indent

deeply ensuring it is smooth.

Step 4.

With a ball tool, create eye sockets and

press the eyes in. Trace the mouth with

the dresden tool. Flatten a ball of red

paste. Cut in half and attach one under

the mouth and the other above. Shape,

texture and add teeth.
