With the help of Jack and this summoning circle, you can now summon any of your favourite villagers! 🎃🔮

Set up was done by drawing and printing the design onto cardboard, then cutting it out with a craft knife (I only cut myself once!). I laid it on top of cling film (which is held by two books, and on the other side I taped it to a chair). The black thing on the ground is a roll of black glitter book cover that I never used. Lastly, the light is a mixture of a regular torch and a red torch.

Summoning the autumn widow spider, for a good harvest and protection from evil spirits this halloween.

Did the paper spider myself, with scissors and crafting knife. First time using it too~! Used leaves from outside.
Dunno how to actually show a good picture of this. Used torch.

Oh Great Last Tree Ghost, please send The Wraiths some powerful allies to help us protect The Woods!
I have created this summoning circle in your honor!

I'm sorry this is a little blurry. In case you can't see everything clearly, I had my cell phone on top of the cage with the flashlight turned on. I then held the paper off the table with the pen. I took the photo with a camera.

This was heckin' hard to figure out how to do. lol!
 
6 circles facing inward, 6 surrounding, 6 that adorn. Sometimes the simplest circles are most powerful: this one calls upon dichotomies, the lunar cycle and… eyes. All those things that surround us: some demon watches from the outside and as it can see through the circle, its hands creep in and it begins to saturate the circle with vivid magic. Intangible but all-powerful.

(I hope the hands are okay, my material was a lot more troublesome than I expected and my camera is bad with light, so this took multiple hands and I had a stupid small piece of plastic. I know I wouldn’t win with this, but hopefully it’s enjoyable.)

my entry is based on the summoning circle from cardcaptor sakura! (specifically sakura's first magic circle)
this was made using cardstock and was cut out extremely carefully with an xacto knife. it's hanging from
my ceiling using string + a fabric elastic and tape

Who better to summon than my favorite Pokémon, Ninetales! I’ve set up a Vulpix and Ninetales plushie shrine at the head of my summoning circle. This Halloween season, I’m channeling Ninetales and wisps all around! I drew this digitally, printed it out, then cut it out (for 3 hours, believe it or not) using an xacto knife.

Taped it to my kitchen cabinet door, then used my boyfriend's phone flashlight while taking a picture with my phone. Probably would have been easier to just have him hold it for me lol. Tried to glue the pieces together but it didn't stick on this printer paper, so I taped it instead.
 
attempted to make a bag of bells lumpy oval magic circle. 🥴💰

i’m sorry if this isn’t right or seems low effort. i really did try and put effort into it (especially the photo, that was difficult), i’m just not good at this sort of stuff lol.
