Day #4

Welcome to the VLVS! All Hallow's Eve Blog Hop DAY NUMBER FOUR!!!

I'm keeping the ball rolling with tags, though I've switched from the bright tags before to kraft and black.

Today's tag is an outdoor scene, complete with a little crooked lettering, lol.

 I used stamps:

All Hallow's Eve

Tree background

Full Moon

Flock of Bats

Cemetery

R.I.P and Jack o' Lantern

Raven

Small Crow Right

They were all stamped in archival black on kraft paper. Throw in some walnut distress stain to age the edges, and a black pen for some faux stitching..done and done! The tag is a #8 tag from TH's tags and bookplates die. 

And here is a pile of some of my VLVS! images.... these happen to be the ones I don't use... imagine all those I do o.o

Now onto the others!!!

Day #3

Wowza!! What amazing inspiration we've had so far!! I'm super honored to be among these gals sharing their work and I really hope you're seeing everyone's goods!!

Today I've got a 3rd scene style tag... and it's my favorite!!!

The stamps I used for this beauty are:

Oct 31

Minaret Bird Cage

Spiked Fence

Small Raven Left

and a brand spanking new Pumpkin Row stamp from plate827 STILL ON PRE-ORDER!!!

I also used Distress ink in spiced marmalade, dried marigold, walnut stain, and black soot. I stamped in archival black ink. The stars were made with distress ink through a star punchinella from Gauche Alchemy. the ribbon is May Arts webbing and the brad is a BasicGrey epoxy brad. 

Now check out what everyone else is doing!!!

Blog Hop Day #2!!

Welcome back!! I continue the blog hop with another scene stamping styled tag... I really feel like it's a technique that is totally an art all on its own.

Today's tag utilizes stamps:

Tree Background
Faded Crow/Raven

Flock Of Bats

Full Moon

and

Spiked Fence

The background was made with Mustard Seed, Dried Marigold and Walnut Stain distress inks. The moon was colored in with Spiced Marmalade and Barn Door distress ink. All stamps were stamped in Archival Jet black. The tag is mounted on a kraft piece of paper. And I've covered the moon in diamond glaze.

Hello to all my new follows and a big thank you to each and every single follower who continues to visit me for inspiration!! ♥

Now on with the rest of the hop!!!
