I will be sharing today's Halloween make on Leigh's page...Day 1

~~~~~~~

Ike is sponsoring both Leigh's 31DOH and Janis' Cat Lovers Hop so I thought I would start today with an old make - a set of three tags that I made using two of Ike's cat images. The original post is here.

Ike commented on my post yesterday - I am sure I am going to be using the expression she used in the comment regularly from now on...

Today my new make is another page from my Halloween scrapbook. I am going to link this to both 31DOH and the Cat Lovers Hop.

This was the last page I shared - I thought this was pretty busy so I thought I would try and make the next one less so.

What do you think?

I have once again made a collage of tags, having first started with a couple of squares of paper from my scraps (distressed around the edges with shabby shutters):

The technique on this tag is Distress Oxide: Micro-glaze resist

 (Tim Holtz Creative Chemistry LIVE 2017).

Method:

1. Apply micro-glaze through stencil using ink blending tool.
2. Rub Distress Oxide colours on craft sheet.
3. Mist with water to form colour droplets.
4. Swipe tag through inks and lift off.
5. Dry with heat tool.
6. Repeat previous steps using different colours of Oxide for each additional layer.

The technique on this second tag is White emboss resist with Watercolour Wash.

Method:

1. White emboss a stamped image onto the tag.
2. Choose 4 or 5 Distress Ink colours and smear onto craft mat.
3. Spray a corner of each colour.
4. Use a slim paintbrush to apply the colours with a lot of water all over the tag.
5. Dry with heat tool
6. I added the sentiment stamp (Doo Lally Pip - Create) with black Archival ink.

The technique on this tag is Brushless Watercolour.

Method:

1. Take a large background stamp and ink it with several Distress Inks.
2. Spray the inked stamp with water.
3. Stamp tag and dry with heat tool.
4. With a blending tool, blend the edges around the stamped image. 
5. I added the sentiment stamp again with black Archival ink.

I then added the images:

These images were a Friday Freebie from Oddball Art Stamps in May. 
These are available when you subscribe to the Oddball Newsletter.

I printed Cat Woman and two of her cats, coloured them with Copics and cut them out.

I coloured them in a very similar way for my perpetual calendar in May!!

I only realised this after the event... This time I was trying to link up with the tag - but I often find that I colour certain images in a similar way... do you?
