Tag Tuesday Christmas Colors in July

For the Tuesday Tag Challenge, Louise has chosen "Christmas Colors," but you are not to use Christmas Stamps! The first thing that came to my mind was to use the new Tim Holtz Halloween stamps that I ordered from eclectic Paperie! Once I saw a couple of my favorite people using "Halloween," that made the decision easy! I also knew I was going to use another new Sizzix die that I picked up from Stacey. These are pretty huge wings and would look great in scrapbook layouts or wall hangings! The wings and tag background are embossed and highlighted. The background for the witches face, bat and crow were done with various alcohol inks in shades of green. All images were embossed. I added red color to the eyes using a alcohol marker and added a red pearl eye to the crow and other flashy bling to the tag and wings.




This was another fun challenge! Thanks you for stopping by and commenting! Have a wonderful weekend!
