October Spiderweb Tag by Pinky

Hey there Clear Scraps friends, it is Pinky today and I had fun creating my October Tag for the month, it is nearly one of my favorite holidays, Halloween! I love costumes and the start of the holiday season, Thanksgiving and Christmas is on it's way!

For my monthly October Tag I started with a Clear Acrylic Tag from the Clear Scraps Tag Album and Tag Box Set and the NEW Release the Clear Scraps Ghost Chipboard Embellishments.

I took the Clear Scraps Acrylic Tag , removing the back protective film, then I used acrylic paint to "stamp" on spiderwebs using an old Halloween Spiderweb stamp I had, I used a foam brush to dab the stamp with black acrylic paint. After that I brushed the edges of the Clear Scraps Acrylic Tag using black acrylic paint (the same one). After all of that was dry I used StazOn ink to stamp on the "Trick Or Treat" sentiment to the front of the tag after I removed the protective film.

While I was waiting for the stamping to dry, I used the Clear Scraps Ghost Chipboard Embellishments and covered them in modeling paste, adding glitter while it was still wet.

Now those did take a few to dry, so I set it all aside overnight, however you could just leave it a few hours.

When all was dry I added black rhinestones in the center of the spider webs and around the tag. And of course you can see I used a black and gold tulle to tie the top.

I have really enjoyed trying new mediums and techniques on these monthly tags! It has given me a real creative outlet and they are pretty useful when all is said and done.

I hope you enjoyed my October Tag friends,

Until next time, keep on creating, and come back for more ideas.
