So this month I SKYPED with my girlfriend to make this 

October tag. If we can't get together....we can SKYPE....the next best thing.... right!!!!

This month we were able to plan our tag because we traveled to see a girlfriend 

to create a special project. A SCRAPPY WEEKEND...GIRLTIME....

THE BEST FUN!

We were hoping to make this tag when we were together, but we made

something REALLY SPECIAL..and didn't have time.  

I am going to post that later....can't WAIT to SHARE!!!!!! 

Sooo we at least purchased a few things for our tag....after a few

visits to Hobby Lobby, Michaels, and Tuesday Morning!

Nothing like shopping for inspiration ...RIGHT!!!!! LOVE!!!!

HERE'S My OCTOBER TAG:

(This casket would have been really cool with the
Riveted Metal Texture Fade ....boo hoo..
.I don't have that one yet...so the wood will have to do)
There are three birthdays in my family in 

October.... (two right on Halloween) so I

couldn't resist a Dracula theme tag.  It brings back the memories of 

watching DARK SHADOWS when I came home from school!

 (Telling my age here...LOL)

So for my tag...I kept to Tim's directions for the back ground,

but that is where our similarities stopped. 

I made the back ground first....I used a few different

background pieces...like some dictionary

prints....the letters and the definition for vampire.

Everything was distressed Tim style

with Walnut Distress Ink and Paint.

I also used Candy Apple Red Paint, I poured this 

into the bottle so it would look like BLOOD....and a 

Red Sharpie for edging.

I think one of the COOLEST products Tim has out now is the 

Distress Collage Medium Crazing.  This stuff is amazing and 

makes the most wonderful teeny, tiny cracks on your paper as it

dries.  Don't be afraid to use a heavy application.
(Tim suggests applying it with your finger)

You can see the tiny cracks in the photo above.

LoVe, lOvE, LOVE this product.
