Here we go with another fab tag from the King of Craft, laden with Halloween spookiness! As usual I had to improvise a tadge but I loved doing the tissue paper background.
Can't seem to get his tissue paper anywhere so I stamped his script from his mini new stamp set over some packing tissue and crumpled as per his instructions. Then I inked and 'acryliced' over the top and stamped his cobweb on in archival black. I haven't got his lovely gothic Boo so used an old set of letters that were very red glittered so I toned down the red with black alcohol ink and black soot distress and cut around a flourish to make it look more gothic. I didn't have two 'o's' so I masacred an 8 instead! No die cut spider and so a freeky plastic one got the red and black glitter treatment. No calender stamp but used the arsenic label from his stamp set. Suitably eery I hope! Off now to play again, see you all soon. x
I love that you used the red and black glitter together. Very cool.
