Halloween wine tag with spiderweb and skull

Okay, I promise this is my last wine tag in this Halloween season! No more until next year!

The tag was cut out with an MFT-Die Namics Wine Tag die. I really love the shape and the size of this die.

Then I stamped and heat embossed the spiderweb from Tim Holtz Webs&Damask stamp set. After I blended Distress inks onto the tag, Bundled Sage and then Peeled Paint. But then I wanted to make the colours more vivid, so I also added Twisted Citron.

The edges were inked with Gathered Twigs and Black Soot.

I cut out the skull from 300gsm watercolour paper and then I put Gritt Paste on the surface. When it was dry I smudged it with diluted paints and Distress Crayon. And fussy cut a background paper to place behind the skull. This paper is a retired Kraft-Core paper and as you can see, I sanded a little bit.

The bone was cut into two pieces, because it was easier for me to put it on the tag.

I put double-sided adhesive the back of the bones and skull and I started to adhere them to the tag.

What I used:

MFT Die-Namics, Wine Tag die

Stampers Anonymous, Webs&Damask by Tim Holtz

Stampers Anonymous, Regions Beyond by Tim Holtz

Sizzix Bigz die, Skull and Crossbones by Tim Holtz

Sizzix Thinlits die, Frightful Things

Ranger Distress ink pads (Gathered Twigs, Twisted Citron, Peeled Paint, Bundled Sage, Black Soot)

Ranger Distress Gritt Paste

Ranger embossing powder (black, white)

Round wooden box with spider and cobweb for Halloween

Here is another upcycling project from me. I had a round shape wooden box with an ugly stamping and with too big crackles. I didn't like it at all! So I transformed it into a Halloween box. 

The process was the same as it was with the box with ghosts.

But here I used a Die-namics die for the cobweb (Spider Web Cover-Up) and I put a little furry spider on the top.

With this box I would like to join:

Halloween card with bottles

This month it was Corrie's turn to choose a theme for the Country View Challenges blog, and I was very happy that her choice was very seasonal: ALL THINGS SPOOKY. So I made a Halloween card.

For this card I cut out a basic card from black cardstock with rectangle shape die.

I cut out a one size smaller card from white cardstock and I coloured them with the following Ranger Distress Inks: Seedless Preserves, Dusty Concord, Wilted Violet, Aged Mahogany, Carved Pumpkin, Dried Marigold, Black Soot.

Then I stamped a cobweb with Tim Holtz new cobweb stamp: Stampers Anonymous Stamp Set, Webs&Damask (CMS276) with a Ranger Distress ink - any colours, doesn't matter which one because you will cover it embossing powder. So after I put Ranger Embossing Powder (Silver Pearl) on it and melted with my heating tool.

I cut out the bottles with Sizzix Bigz Die, Apothecary Bottles (658715) and Sizzix Movers&Shapers Die, Apothecary Bottles by Tim Holtz (658722) and coloured them with Ranger Distress inks.

I covered the bottles with DecoArt Clear Crackle Glaze and when it was dry I smeared some Walnut Stain ink into the crackles.

From this angle you can see better my crackles:

I used the Stampers Anonymous Undertaker Stamp Set to stamp the spider and to make the labels of my bottles. Actually I used some Crafty Individuals stamps too (Poison and Danger) for the labels. 

I stamped the spider with Ranger Distress ink (Black Soot) then melted Ranger Distress Embossing Powder (Black Soot) but as the spider didn't rise enough from the surface I put some extra glitter liner on and after drying a little black marker colouring to reduce the sparkle of the glitter liner. 

The text was made with the Crazy Talk Stamp Set (CMS236) and cut out with Die Namics Die.
