Spell

 The theme for this week's Totally papercrafts Challenge is Halloween ...
I used this fab Kenny K image, and coloured her using my pens, adding some soft lime to her skin to spook her up a bit.  I followed Tim Holtz's basic ideas for his October tag, but created my own tissue paper using white tissue paper and a Kaisercraft stamp.I used distress inks and popiscle glimmer mist to create the background.  I used grungeboard letters, and added black alcohol ink to silver embossing powder.  Having inked the letters in black soot distress ink i added versamark ink and then the embossing powder - it created a really molten look to the letters.  I added a TH ticket stamp, ribbon webbing, stained seam binding and the witches hat charm.
