Out of season

Right about now many of you have put away your cooler weather clothes and are sporting warm weather attire.  I decided to think out of the season for this Grungy Monday tag that features the technique Tim Holtz showed back in September 2008.  I love how the inks bleed when misted with water, especially on watercolor paper! 

Tim Holtz:  Falling Leaves, web from Trick-or-Treat, Odds-n-Ends ticket, Raven & Scaredy Cat  Sizzix die, Typeset strip die

Ranger:  Rust, Caramel, Currant, Lettuce, Butterscotch, Eggplant Adirondack inks; Jet Black Archival Ink

Misc:  Sakura glaze pen, EKSuccess spider punch, fibers, buttons

We do have a lot of leaves falling today but it's because of the high winds, severe t-storms and tornado watches and warnings in effect.  Hope everyone is able to stay and sound if you're in the path of nasty weather!

  7. The leaves are a great backdrop to the webs. Very creative idea! And the buttons are fabulous and all stringy looking. Just need some candy corn :-)

  8. Actually, our weather is so cool and wet, it COULD be late October here! And your fun, fabulous tag makes me feel better about that. I love that you traversed the seasons and created such a fun Halloween piece. The watercolor stamping looks awesome, and the design is darling!
