Hello Friends!
I just want to say a huge thank you for the lovely comments on my haunted house, my witchy cabinet and also my simple die cut cards in my last post, I really love making Halloween/Autumn projects and I do appreciate all of your lovely comments!
I was so thrilled when I saw Tim's tag for this month, which you can see HERE. This month's Remix is Patchwork Collage and Sizzix Monster.
I don't have the monster die but I do have the Zombie and I have used him to create my tag.
I followed Tim's instructions to make the background. I applied the Distress Collage Medium - Crazing with my finger, which Tim suggested, it is much better than using a brush as it leaves no brush marks and gives you more control over where to put the medium.
You can see the crazing a little better in the picture below. I love how the cracks appear when you rub in the Distress Crayons.
For the Zombie I used the Cobweb embossing folder to create the texture on his face.
To finish off I added staples, the Idea-ology skeleton and the word band.
I am adding this to Tim's Tags for October.
As always, thanks for looking, hope the Zombie has not been too scary for you!
Hugs, Anne xx
What a spooky zombie! It's such a super cool idea to emboss the face with the cobweb embossing folder! The background is fabulous - love the crackles. And the little skeleton is a wonderful finishing touch!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Anne, or should I say Queen of Halloween has done it again. This is freaky and oh so special.
ReplyDeleteBTW, your sidebar caught my eye - congratulations for being published in Craft Stamper.

ReplyDeleteI will be going to check out Tim's tag, but your imagination knows no bounds when it comes to developing your tag, using different products, yet still you achieve a perfect look that represents Tim's own tag. This one is just amazing, and I love the metallic gleams over the crazing. Thanks for showing how the product looks in the closeup...what a particularly spooky scary tag!! Imagine using the spider web for facial texture! TFS & Hugs
