Anyway, I decided to get out Tim's "Seasonal" grungeboard set that came out ages ago. I inked up several components of the set in Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, Dusty Concord, and Black Soot Distress Inks. Then I went in with some Distress Stickles in Rock Candy, along with a bit of Black Diamond and Gunmetal for a bit of spooky sparkle. Since I don't have any of Tim's Halloween stamps (you do feel sorry for me, don't you LOL?), I had to draw in the jack-o-lantern face, and I used an Oxford Impressions spider web stamp. Also added some tea-dyed cheesecloth for a spidery-webby effect, and some bling for the cat's and owl's eyes for that eerie glowing effect.
Thanks for popping in, hope you have time to play along!

This is great!!! I love Halloween! And I do feel bad that you don't have any of Tim's new Halloween stamps, I don't either...I'm thinking we'll both change that in the near future! LOL!!!
Oh, this is just a little too awesome! Glad you saved one "item" from the garbage bin! This is outstanding! Love it, Love it!
Wow! This is spectacular, Jean! What a darling design, and your inked grunge and stamping look fabulous. LOVE how you suspended the letters with acetate (ghost trails for certain!) and the Distress Stickles give the perfect amount of sparkle without taking away the spookiness. This is adorable AND ingenious!
Already Halloween is cropping up here and there - where do the months go?! This is such great fun with wonderful depth of colour. Lynne M x
