Anne<\/a> loves to put a ‘not too scary’ Halloween project in my front window on All Hallows Eve. She used a Tombstone Etcetera Tag<\/a>, Etcetera Trims<\/a>, a Tim Holtz Witch Die<\/a>, Cauldron Die<\/a>, lots of idea-ology pieces<\/a> and stitching on the tag and the witches dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Andrea<\/a> made a scrap paper book using Reverse Confetti’s Square Window Tag<\/a> die, Dina Wakley’s Abstract Figures<\/a> stamp set and plenty of Dylusions paint<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> made an art journal page, using one of the papers from Tim Holtz’s Abandoned Paper Stash<\/a> as a background. The focal point is the Perched Bird<\/a> die by Memory Box, and the hearts were die cut with the SSS Thinking of You Heart<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> was inspired by Tim Holtz Sizzix Faceted Heart Die<\/a> , Tim Holtz Frightful Things <\/a>Die, Tim Holtz Idea-ology Creepy Eyes<\/a> to create a trio of tags themed Halloween! She used Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Mini Stencil  set 43<\/a> together with Tim Holtz Ranger Distress Grit Paste<\/a>, Tim Holtz Ranger Distress Oxides spray: Black Soot<\/a>, Seedless Preserves<\/a> and Crushed olive<\/a> to color them!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cheiron<\/a> created a mixed media tag with faux stitching. She used Distress Spray Stains and Distress Oxide Sprays<\/a> and stamped her tag with Distress Oxides and stamps from the Stitched<\/a>, Sideshow<\/a>, Theories<\/a> and Mini Media Marks<\/a> stamp sets to create a colorful combo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Emma<\/a> created a Halloween card using a combination of Tim Holtz stamps, Monster Reunion<\/a>, Mr Bones<\/a> and Tangled Webs<\/a> and for her stitched element she used a sewing machine to create a border around the layered panels, leaving loose threads hanging to recreate the look of spider’s webs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kath<\/a> created a wall panel to tell the story of two intrepid adventurers who went foraging in the woods in the dead of night but are now not sure if that was such a good idea. She used Tim Holtz Ideaology Abandoned Paper Stash<\/a>, Life Of The Party<\/a>, Wildflowers<\/a> and Tiny Toadstools<\/a> stamp sets, Halloween Paper Dolls<\/a> and added faux stitching around the edges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Lols <\/a>decorated an Etcetera Tag<\/a> using a Large Stems Die <\/a>and Baseboard Doll <\/a>for the focus and lots of Distress Oxide Sprays<\/a> and a Bubble Stencil<\/a> for the background. For the stitched element she used a Tim Holtz Stitches Cling Stamp Set<\/a>, black versafine ink and heat embossed with clear powder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> made a masculine B-day card for a cat lover using Visible Image Curious Cats<\/a> stamps, Tim Holtz Inventor 7<\/a> for her shadow stamped background and faux stitching with Tim Holtz Stitches <\/a>stamp set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Maura<\/a> stitched up a couple of tags using AALL and Create’s Zipp It #147<\/a> and #39 stamp sets<\/a>, along with Simon Says Stamp’s Quilted STAMPtember stencil. <\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a watercolored card using Simon Says Stamp Suzy’s Succulents Watercolor Print<\/a> and Daniel Smith Ultimate Mixing Hand Poured Watercolors<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sandra<\/a> stitched the edges of her Halloween card, she began with a sheet of the Abandoned Paper Stash<\/a>, and added White Gesso<\/a> in some places and made it orange using Infusions Orange County<\/a> and Distress Ink Ripe Permisson<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Zoey<\/a> used Tim Holtz Idea-ology BOTANICAL Layers Paperie <\/a> along with Inky Antics BIG HOUSES Clear Stamp Set 11427lc<\/a> to decorate this little tag that will be used as gift tag!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
