Halloween Potions

Hi Crafters,

I had forgotten to share this month's set of ATC's that I created for the swap at Charmed Cards And Crafts, so here they are...


Recipe
Background was created using bright coloured Brushos then embossed using a 'Bark' embossing folder and finally a light inking of Black Soot Distress Ink to highlight the embossed texture and tone down the metallic shine. I then cut out all the elements from the Sizzix Laboratory & Cobweb die sets, inked them and added to the shelf die cut. The Halloween word comes from a Chocolate Baroque Stamp Set and the frothy spillage coming from some of the bottles was created using Andy Skinners Lava Paste.

Challenges I'd like to enter:
Crafty Cardmakers - #244 Halloween
Crafty Gals Corner - #200 Halloween Colours

Thanks for popping in today,
