The stamps I chose naturally led me toward Halloween: Victorine Originals "Boarded Window" (2049K) and "Flying Bats (3047C). I chose a speckled navy cardstock to make a large tag and stamped two flights of the bats in Archival "Jet Black" I then stamped the bats again in "Jet Black" on a 1.5 inch circle (white cardstock, Paper Shaper Punch PSPWP01) and overlaid the circle on the background so it matched up with the previous stamping. I then stamped "Boarded Window" in "Jet Black" and colored it with Distress Markers ("Gathered Twigs", "Fossilized Amber", "Abandoned Coral", "Blue Print Sketch" and "Twisted Citrus") and a water brush. I fussy cut the window and glued it to the tag. Then I stamped two sentiments ("Treat" 3570B and "Halloween" 3569C fro the Penny Black "Halloween Night" set, 20 - o14) in Versamark and heat embossed with Comotion's Clear Top embossing powder ("Glowing Spring Green 161169 and Bright Tangerine Dream Orange" 161333). Final touch was a Jolee's by You "Pumpkin", altered with a bit of "Ripe Persimmon" Distress Marker" and Hero Hues patterned ribbon ("Foliage"):
We have another "Anything Goes" challenge from Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, July 29, 2015. After experimenting with a small card, I decided to go with a tag that used stamping with black on navy cardstock. And it so happened that the sentiments I chose for this tag were form the featured company Penny Black!
