I do!!

It seems that I do 'do' Halloween after all! Even though I don't really like spooky goings on and steer away from the gory items on sale I must say I have enjoyed crafting Halloween style!

I have made a tag which I started by using Transparent gel medium through a diamond stencil.
 I used Black Soot Distress ink all over the tag, then used Tim's mini Halloween set to stamp the bats, the skellie and the greeting using Archival black.
I had some plastic spiders that have been lurking around for a while so after adding a little orange paint and part of a thinlets die I stuck three of them to the side of the skellie. 
I added more ink around the edges of the tag.

I would like to enter this in 

and

Thanks for looking, Chris

    This is fabulous. I am in awe that you are able to get such awesome stamping over different heights. Shows what a super stamper you are. Loved the skeleton in particular.

    Fabulous tag Chris, great textures, love those monochromes with that litte touch of orange! Just perfect!
    My apols for the lack of visits, but work is full on at the mo, and Sunday seems to be the only day I manage right now....

    Well done Chris for entering into the spirit of Halloween. I'm not really the spooky type either. Thanks for joining in with us at Country View Crafts.

    Well I am glad you do do Halloween because this tag is a smashing success. The transparent paste with the stencil is genius, it created an ethereal feel and vibe. Those spider are wicked. Awesome sauce tag! Hugz. ~Niki

    Yeah, Chris! this first step is admitting you have a problem! But 'doing" Halloween does not seem to be a problem at all for you! I love your spooky tag! Forgive my absence. I have been on a bit of a catch up with crafting binge lately, and then life, too, gets in the way of me visiting my bloggy friends! So happy to be here for a few minutes this morning, although I won't be "catching up" judging from all the thumbnails I've seen of yours when I am linking up. You have been a BUsY girl! Hugs!

    I absolutely love this Chris, the background is brilliant and I just love how the skeleton looks like he is afraid of those huge spiders! Great fun.

    Thanks so much for joining in our 'Make it Spooky' challenge at A Vintage Journey. Hugs, Anne x
