Hello crafting friends and welcome to challenge #11 at Lavinia World,
where the theme is always Anything Goes!
It's that time of the year again when I start making my calendars to send to family as Christmas gifts. With this in mind, I made a Halloween tag to put on my October page.
Using Marianne Design dies, I cut out two tags. One in white and the other in orange.I used the white tag to create my scene. I began by sponging in the ground using Memento London Fog ink. Next I cut out a circle out of sticky paper and placed it where I wanted the moon to be. Leaving the moon mask in place, I used Memento Grape Jelly ink to sponge in the purple sky. Then I removed the moon mask and went over it very lightly with Memento Dandelion ink. When the ink was completely dry, I stamped Willow the Witch and the cauldron using Clair Versafine Nocturne ink. I finished it off by stamping the largest bat of the Bats stamp set, also using the Clair Versafine Nocturne ink. I tied the two tags together using a small piece of twine, off setting the orange tag to add a backing and a little dimension. I used the Silhouette to print and cut the month and to cut a few Jack o' Lanterns.
That is it, that is my October page. The photo of the family will go on top of the orange photo mat, leaving about and 1/8" all around. Here is a quick recap of the materials I used, each linked to the Lavinia World store for your convenience.
