Hi everyone! It's me, Tonya and I'm here to share a tag I created for Smeared and Smudged 31 Days of Halloween.
Also Art Anthology is this month's partner with Altered Pages which I am pretty excited about.
I fussy cut one of the Creepy People out along with a set of bug wings and adhered to the tag along with a black diecut and leftover scraps (which one piece I cut to make a hat) from the Mailbox Muse kit. I outlined the creepy person with a sharpie and added Stickles to the wings. Also added a couple of vintage text page strips that I had leftover from another project.
Next I added black paint around the edges and "drops" on the tag. Then I dipped the outer edge of a empty toilet paper roll in the black paint and added random circles and the white circles I dipped a small bottle lid in my ink pad. Once dry I inked up my +++ roller stamp that was also in my Mailbox Muse kit and rolled in randomly across the tag. I stamped Spooky on bottom and 31 on the top corner of the tag.
I used a circle stencil with Art Anthology sorbet paint which kinda got a little smudged but that's ok I added some mini plastic hexagon shapes for a cool effect. What paint was still on the stencil I flipped over and laid it in different spots for a bit of texture and color. Lastly I added sequins, dew drops and fiber to the tag.
Be sure to hop along everyday with Smeared and Smudged 31 Days of Halloween blog hop and check out Altered Pages blog for lots of inspiration! If you have any questions about my tag and how I created it please let me know.

31 Days of Halloween - DAY 2
I want to share my tag I created. I started off with a #10 tag for my base, adhered with a gel medium some of the orange cardstock that was in my Mailbox Muse kit, let dry and then added a wash of orange, brown and black acrylic paint. I used a blow dryer to speed up the drying process.Next I added black paint around the edges and "drops" on the tag. Then I dipped the outer edge of a empty toilet paper roll in the black paint and added random circles and the white circles I dipped a small bottle lid in my ink pad. Once dry I inked up my +++ roller stamp that was also in my Mailbox Muse kit and rolled in randomly across the tag. I stamped Spooky on bottom and 31 on the top corner of the tag.
