Eye of Newt


Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg and howlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

That is part of the incantation of the Three Witches in Shakespeare's Macbeth.  (It's okay to say that name outside of the theater. I checked.) Witch spells with ooey-gooey body parts always seem appropriate this time of year and the grosser the better.


As soon as I finished this card I knew I wanted to call it "Eye of Newt." It just seemed appropriate. Who wouldn't want a jar full of eyeballs on Halloween? Me, that's who! In card form super cute and not at all gross. But a real jar of eyes....? No thanks.

As a little bonus, if you'd like to listen to the song from the Harry Potter film in which they sing of this incantation, you can find it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMzrgXFeX_o
