31 Days of Halloween - Day 31






















While I was playing with the Distress stains and the new star thingie, I came up with six tags that almost matched in twos. They were sitting on the table sort of thumbing their noses at me so I decided to use some things I had in pairs. The top pair are skellies are from Flickr Commons. The middle pair are digis from Tickled Pink. The last set of girlies were drawn by my friend Pam for our weekend of playing but neither of us got to them then. Swirls on all edges by Inkadinkado. To honor a prevalent style here on Smeared and Smudged of using lots of embellishments I gave it a try. Not exactly up to snuff but not bad at all. I have drawers full of cool stuff but never really got the hang of using it. Buttons and ribbon from sewing stuff. Little gear looking things are some kind of cheap washers from Home Depot. They are silver out of the package so I colored a few with gold and copper Sharpie pens. And that's a wrap. It's been a riot and a half!!
