🎃
~~~~~~~

So let's celebrate Halloween!!

My starter today is a spooky tree. I have been taking part in the Life Book 2021 Taster Sessions and this was inspired by Kassi Martin.


I decided I needed to add shiny pink texture paste through Tim Holtz stencils.



So - I started adding more stuff to my Halloween junk journal and embellishing it a bit more. I think this is going to be a work in progress for some time as I think each page could do with some penwork. Here are two or three pages with additional ATCs and ATCoins. 




I decided I would definitely need some more pages.
Each of the pages so far have been 12 in. by 8.5 inches, scored down the middle and stuck to the next set back to back. The back of the final page was stuck directly to the back cover.


I decided to make some half pages is a similar way - these are only about 4 inches wide.


And then these about 4.5 inches high to accommodate the thick ATCoins I put on the inside cover, again using papers from Webster's pages.



So then I started making a page for today. This uses an ATC that I made using part of one of Leigh's images and the gold metal embellishment 'happy'
and 5 twinchies (two inch square pieces of mixed media art) inspired by Laly Mille in the Life Book 2021 Taster Sessions. I added the Tim Holtz bats stamp to each one. I had used a gold pen on these twinchies so I continued that into the page.


However my written Halloween didn't really show up...


So I added some black pen - couldn't resist adding some more bats to the trees either!


I will add this page to Leigh's Linky!


I am also very pleased to be participating in the Countdown to Halloween Blog Hop



Happy Hopping!
