Tim's October Tag of 2014

Tim's October tag for 2014 was great fun as most usually are. Like so many of us, there is something about Halloween that just adds that little extra magic and childlike feeling. I am also linking this up to Linda's Frilly and Funkie for the "A Haunting Halloween Challenge."
Following the guidelines, I stamped and cut my masks using that cute owl and spider and my stencil of choice was "Speckles." I do not have the new Distress Stain Sprays, so did mix my own using reinkers Spiced Marmalade, Rusty Hinge, Barn Door (orange combo), Dusty Concord and Peeled Paint. Flicked on a Metallic stain with a toothbrush.
The funky witch was calling my name, so she became the focal point and was stamped on manila card stock (because I forgot to using watercolor paper) and using the waterbrush was colored with Barn Door, Shabby Shutters and Dusty Concord. I did have a difficult time getting the shine to show through.
I stamped over the Alpha Chips using Tim's web and flicked on some Barn Door and then shaded around the edges with black.
Finished off with what I had or should say because I could not find where I placed the monocles, recently purchased!!! What can I say!
Hope you are having a wonderful and inky start to the week. Thank you for visiting today and taking the time to comment.
