Halloween Tag.

The Theme for this months tag over at The Altered Paper is Halloween. My tag is already on its way to my swap partner in America. I have decorated this tag on both sides as I couldn't make up my mind which images to use as I liked them all. The backing paper and transparent stickers are by Creative Memories and been in my stash for ages so thought it was high time they were used.  The pre coloured digis are freebies that I found on this site here.
 
The hanging loop is made from string dipped in brown acrylic paint left over  from the little Italian  houses I made  and still sitting on  my desk.It was just long  enough to bend over and sandwich between the pages. (Everything has its use.) The black bow was one I had  made and discarded  as being too big but looks just right on  here.


As the string and ribbon are snippets I am playing over at Pixies  Crafty Workshop #41.
Also the following challenges:
Scrap Creations: Pumpkins.
The Poodles Parlour: Halloween.
Hooked on Craft: Halloween.
Heck of a Challenge: Spooktacular.
Great Impressions: Fall/Trick or Treat.
Scrappy Frogs: Fall/Halloween.

Oooh these are great, I love that witch - I have some ideas for halloween tags with some new stamps I bought about three weeks ago but as you saw I have been too busy sewing to do anything else! Am a bit worn out now! Hope you are ok.

Great Halloween tag there Mrs A - wouldn't like to meet that cat on a dark night though. Come to think of it, the witch would give me the heebie jeebies too!

Yes, we truly have tons of sparrows in the garden here. Remember that bush wot Len took a can of spray paint to - well, that's where they live. Mr Blackbird is their landlord and there are sometimes around eight of them perched in the bush, chirruping and flitting to and from the seed hoppers hung in the garden. Sweet little things too.

Hope you're doin' fine - I finally used ONE of them lovely roses :))

Hugs, Di xx

Great tag there Mrs A! Love Halloween and wish it had been celebrated like it is these days, when I were a nipper! No pumpkins then only swedes. I now feel sooo sorry for my mum carving swedes for me when I were a lass!
