I picked up a fabulous set of Close to My Heart Halloween label stamps at the Stamp, Scrap & Art Tour this summer and last year I found a must-have pack of K&Co. shaker stickers at Michaels. It's one of those things you desperately want to hoard and never let go of because they're just so darn cool but then what's the point? I stamped the 3 images twice each, rubbed them with walnut ink, stacked them and used SU's Crystal Effects on the top layers. Unsurprisingly, the stamped labels bled out a bit but I don't mind it too much with this tag- it just makes them look a bit older and blurrier. I rubbed the distress inks into the ribbons and the kraft tag.
Ingredients:
Stamps: Close to My Heart. Hampton Arts
Paper: Kraft (tag) & brown (reinforcement circle): Stampin' Up
Ink: (Peeled Paint, Walnut Brown, Marmalade Orange): Tim Holtz, (Black Momento): Tsukineko, (Pumpkin Pie, Garden Green, Chocolate Chip): Stampin' Up

Misc: (Sticker): K&Company, (Rub-ons): Creative Imaginations
Challenges:
Pumpkin Spice: Brown & Green
The Stamping Boutique: Halloween

The Kraft Journal: Sketch: I went VERY loose on this but the circle and the pointed piece are the Elixir and Potion pieces and the bottle and Owl Cream pieces make up the rectangle.
great Halloween Tag! Love your take on the sketch!
