Scary Halloween Tag - 31 Days of Halloween

Hello Scary Dreamers!

Back again  with another scary post for the Lost Coast Designs 31 Days of Halloween event!! You will find all the details on the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity -- The Crypt Master and Wicked Blogger.  You will find the blog roll there too.  

The Lost Coast Challenge is running along with the 31 Days of Halloween Event.  Link up all your Halloween/Scary/Weird projects for a chance to win prizes.  See All the challenge details here. 

Check out my scary tag. I would use this for a treat box or bag, write or stamp a greeting on the back and use as a card, or use as a decoration.

Materials List:

Stamps: Flying Skull - Carmen's Veranda and Old Typewriter Alphabet - Lost Coast Designs

Ink: black

CS: orange, purple, green, and white

Copic Markers

Ribbons

hole punch

Make It:

• Make a large tag (4.75 x 4 inches) from green CS
• Add a layer of purple and orange CS
• On white CS, stamp the Flying Skull and color with Copics
• Cut out Skull and add to tag with dimensional adhesive
• Stamp the word Scary in black ink using the alphabet stamps
• Punch hole in top of tag and tie ribbons through hole
• Use to decorate a treat box

Love the whimsy of butterfly wings on the skull.  My kind of skull.....LOL.  Not too scary.  Don't forget to check out all the 31 Days of Halloween projects and link up your own Scary projects!!  Have a great day!

Check back later for more Halloween and Christmas projects here in Dreamland.

31 Days of Halloween with Lost Coast Designs--Post #1

Hello Everyone!
Lots of Halloween fun going on here in Dreamland!!  Today is my first post for the 31 Days of Halloween event!!   Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda Stamps are sponsoring the event with stamp prizes.  This event is presented by Smeared Ink Stamps. There are lots of prizes, blogs, and inspiration projects in this huge event.  Lost Coast Portal to Creativity will have a different Halloween/Scary project each day for the month of October.

I stamped some scary flying skulls for my Halloween decoration.

Materials List:

Stamp: Flying Skull from Carmen's Veranda

Ink: Red Magic, Mango Madness Vera Magic Inks

CS: White, orange, black textured, Chalkboard Black

Orange and black ribbons

 Instructions:

• Make a banner from textured black CS and add a layer of orange CS
• Cut three squares the same size-- two from white cs and one from Chalkboard black CS
• Ink the center of the stamp with Mango Madness ink; and then ink the edges with Red Magic-now stamp on the squares--three times
• Layer each square with it's opposite color -black/white;white/black

• Glue two orange ribbon loops on the back of banner one slightly smaller
• On the smaller loop, tie black ribbon

Love the way the chalk paint looks on this cool stamp!!  I will hang this up for Halloween.  It would also look really cut on the outside of a gift bag.  Or, I could add a white CS piece to the back and stamp or write a message and use as a Halloween card.  See  you next time for more scariness!!
