Mummy Tag Trio

Hello crafty friends,

I am in a tag mood right now - seems to always hit me about this time of year.  For the set of tags I have today, I was inspired by this week's featured stamper on Splitcoaststampers.com - HERE is her tag set.  I thought I would do 6 like she did, but my backgrounds only made 3 since my tag die was larger.  

My Grandson, Patton, offered design advice all a long the way:

"Nana, use Scooby Doo colors."

"Do something to make the colors darker or scarier."

"Make the mummy scarier."  "How do I do that ,Patton?"  "His arms need to be a different direction." 

"Make a mummy that is shorter than the others, Nana." 

We had fun for the 8 minutes he was interested, and then Sponge Bob became way more interesting than my mummies.  

The backgrounds were sponged with CTMH ink, then splattered with water.  The die is an old Sizzix Tag die.  The Mummy images were fussy cut and sponged with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I also used the Who's Your Mummy Greeting, It's a Scream Halloween Greeting, and the new Frightful and Delightful Halloween Greeting (new). For extra interest, I added in the witch from the 4 in 1 Halloween Silhouettes (new), the Spooky Tree, the Silhouette Halloween 3 and 1 Tree,(new), and the Silhouette Grave Yard.  

Here is a closer view of two of the tags:

I think these will look good on some giant candy bars or tied to some Halloween bags.

Hope your week is going well!

Hugz,

Nancy
