31 Days of Halloween Day 1

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

 
Hi there, Riet here.
 Its the start of the 31 Days of Halloween challenge at Lost Coast designs/Carmen's Veranda stamps.
Love, Love , Love Halloween theme crafts.
And it's a Halloween challenge the whole month.
So here is my tag for Halloween.

I used:

Distress ink,
Old paper
Pumice stone
Iced spruce
Dusty concord
Versafine onyx black
White gellpen
Water resistent fineliner
Blue, grey and brown colorpencils
Small circkle punch
Perfect resist
Tag die

How to make the tag.
Take a small amount of perfect resist and a sponge. Dab your sponge in the resist liquid and apply it to the spider web stamp. Make a good print in one go. Let it dry very well.

Now sponge the distress ink Old paper,
Pumice stone, and
Iced spruce onto the card.
let it dry well.

Take a piece of white paper and stamp the Checkerboard border on it.
Sponge them purple with the distress ink dusty concord.
Die cut the tag and glue the checkerboard borders on it.

Stamp the raven with the black versafine.

If you didn't hit all the spots properly, you can touch it up with the fineliner.

Color the raven and the branch he is sitting on.
And stamp the words in black.
Because I thought the tag on the right side was a bit bare, 
I also stamped the grunge tree here.
Mat the tag with black cardboard.
With a punch I make a ring of black cardboard, glue it on and make a hole in it.
You can now put a cord or string in there.


Now its your turn.
Make something with a Halloween or day of the dead theme.
Don't forget to use some stamps.
Please read the rules, to avoid disappointment.

Good luck and till next time.
