Paper and String: 31 Days of Halloween

Hello all you Horrifying Hoppers! How are you on this fine Friday? Me, FABULOUS. I know you are thrilled to hear it and wondering why. Well, Alex is slowly returning to her ~~crazy~~ normal self so I can go back to doing all the things I do best and not ~~deal with~~ worry about her.

Today Alex has me sharing a tag she put together using a stamp with a very handsome raven on it. Personally, I am having a case of hat and tail envy, but will get over it, even if it means I need to go shopping. I would tell you who this stamp is by, but Alex can't remember (big surprise there, not!) and I am not going to fly over and look at the moment. Perhaps later and then I will edit this if I do. The background and image are done using distress inks and a sponge or the Tim Holtz water brush. I know that Alex has fallen in love with this brush and the way she can control the water amounts. You are just lucky you don't have to hear the actually swooning, I can just tell you about it.

Happy Halloween!
Edgar

I want it more and more every time I see someone use it. Gorgeously inked background! BTW...there is nothing wrong about swooning over a water brush ;); 7:27 PM
