If you've been joining us for this week's big Taylored Expressions birthday bash, you have been enjoying some great birthday projects. Today, we are changing it up a bit with some Halloween goodies! I got to play with the new Totally Tags Halloween set as well as some new spooky spider web dies!
As soon as I saw the new stamp set, I thought the rounded tag images would make perfect "headstones" in a cemetery and I decided to create an easel card depicting a little scene. A tutorial for how to make an easel card can be found HERE.
I used the Totally Tags Dies (previous release) to easily die-cut the tags. I used the new Spiderweb Border Die to create the little webs on my card. The spiders are from the new Spiders & Spider Webs Die set and I had one of them strung on some "silk" from its tree!
No Halloween spider is complete without some creepy red eyes, which I added with some liquid dimensionals.
The sentiment is actually from one of the other adorable tags -- here I simply inked only the middle of the stamp. NOTE: Taylored Expressions is offering a Project Pantry kit this month, the Tricks & Treats kit, and, though I didn't use it on this project, I wanted to show it to you:
