Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween
Happy Halloween! I wanted to share a few of the creepy creations that I recently made for some of my swappy pals in the Tim Holtz Addicts group.

I love the new Tim Holtz Sizzix In The Bag Die, which I used with the Tim Holtz Sizzix Mini Cat & Raven Movers & Shapers Dies. They remind me of ‘Trick or Treat’ bags and are the perfect size for ATC’s.

I have been really looking forward to using the new Tim Holtz Apothecary Stamp Set which I used to make the skull ATC. I stamped ‘The End’ using a wood backed stamp that my lovely friend Rhea sent me. Check out her blog, Starrgazer Creates.

Happy Halloween
I made the potion labels ATC using stamps by Tim Holtz, Pink Paislee and My Mind’s Eye, as well as a little crackle glaze and the obligatory Distress Inks.

Happy Halloween
The crow ATC was a bit of a mini triumph for me as I hand drew the sleeve attached to the stamped hand, (normally I can’t draw for toffee)! I also managed to stamp the crow so it was perched on the finger first time. It was one of those moments where you sit back and think, “YES!”

Happy Halloween
I’m off to carve me a pumpkin. Hope you have a Spooktastic Halloween!

    I fell in love with your skull ATC the first time I saw it, but this is my first time seeing the potions label ATC and WOW! I had to keep scrolling back to it to get another look!! And the wire is such a fantastic touch to the crow ATC. You always know how to give your work just that little extra “something” that takes it to the next level!
