Happy Halloween!

It is a Halloween Blog Hop at Artistic Outpost and we are having some spooktacular fun, so come on and join in and check out what my DT Sisters have wickedly conjured up for you!

 For my little "haunting," I did a double sided tag using the Haunted Halloween and Halloween Treats collections. The spacing after the photos, I tried to delete and could not!  

Before inking and salting my backgrounds, I stamped the Skully (clear embossed) and Witch (watercolored and masked). I layed my Distress inks starting at the bottom with the darkest color and working up to the lighter.   

Tim's tree was cut from corrugated cardboard, crackled and cut in half. The fence was cut from glassine and crackled and offset with a white panel.

Stamped the hat a second time in Black Archival and clear embossed. And of course what skeleton would not be complete with a few extra bone parts! Gross, but fun!

 

Don't you just love this bat? He was inked and stamped and embossed and cut out using an Stampin Up punch! Have to pull those out once in awhile!

All sentiments/labels were stamped on newsprint and inked up!

 

I think the bumpy effect of the salted paper works pretty well for a Halloween theme!

And when my "Gothic 31" stamps arrived, I could not wait to ink them up! Since this post is pretty long, I will just give you a little peek and share all the details later this week!

Thank you for stopping by and hope you have enjoyed the blog hop or will! There is still plenty of time to ink up those AO stamps and join in the August Monthly Referral Program, so hop to it!
