My New Favorite Halloween Tag.....


Can you believe that Saturday has rolled around again.  It seems like the weeks are flying by and before you know it, the snow will be flying.  But before we get into the snow, I want to share a tag I made for Halloween.  I just love making tags; they are such little treasures!  There is almost as much  work in them as a card but they are just little works of art.  You can write a message on the back and slip them into a gift bag or they can be the gift itself.  So you see they are very useful!

I used some corner dies I had, painted black and then edged with Rub-N-Buff.  The birds are Tim Holtz and the little owls are from a piece of designer paper I have.  The clock is a Tim Holtz Stamp that I embossed in black and then cut out with a circle die.  Just layer a different color under the clock and it is ready to go.  The flower is some pre-made flowers I have that I spritzed with shimmer sprays.  How's that for quick and easy?

OK I am off to get my day started.  Have a great weekend!

oooo.... I love this tag Glenda!! So many nice elements. The clock makes me think of the 'witching hour'. Very clever and creative to add the owls to the birds on a wire!

I think I'm ready for snow... lol... it was such a long hot summer! Trying to not rush it though... Fall is my favorite time of year and the temps are getting delightfully cool here. Leaves are starting to change colors a bit on the Dogwoods and Sourwoods.

So cute Glenda, I also love the tag making, you don't have to find an envelope to fit it. Love those Tim things.
