Happy Halloween!
First of all, Happy Halloween! Wishing you many Trick or Treaters, many spooky costumers, and awesome candy.
I missed my deadline with the Heart 2 Heart Challenges last week. I hate missing deadlines! But sometimes you just have to let it go and I did.
I was also in a Halloween Tag swap and I missed that deadline too. On a roll here......
The challenge at Heart 2 Heart was to use lace as an inspiration. Cobwebs are a spooky kind of lace. Here is my scary tag.
Can you see that my tag is tombstone shaped? Now how cool is that? The tombstone is cut with the Cricut Artiste, pg 76, (EEK) Accent 1 at 6". I used Slate cardstock and then sanded the entire piece to give the look of granite.
Then I stamped the cobwebs using Creepy Cobwebs (D1319). I stamped them with Black Pigment Ink and then immediately stamped them a second time, a little offset. I think that gives them a spookier look!
The spiders are cut from our Tan and Glitter paper using the Cricut Artist, pg 77 (Halloween) Accent 4 (shift) at 3/4".
The pumpkin is cut with our new Cricut Artbooking cartridge. I changed the proportion using Cricut Craft Room and made him a bit skinnier so that he would fit on my tag. He is on pg 55 (i) Icon (Shift). The Trick or Treat is on the same page. (i) Title.
Everything is inked with black except the tombstone.
I finished up the tag with black tulle ribbon and our Red Shimmer Trim.

Love it, Melinda!!! Not only do the spider webs look "lacey" but tulle ALWAYS reminds me of lace!
