Neat & Tangled Release Week Day 1 - Giveaway



Hey everyone!  It's release week at Neat & Tangled!

I've got one new set coming out this month, but Danielle asked if I'd like to help with the whole release and there is really only one answer to that question, YES!

It's a great release, and we're kicking it off with some adorable Halloween stamps/sequins.

It was fun to put this one together.  I used the moon to create the parachute and stamped that and the spider first.  Then I masked them with some post it tape and blended on the background.

The parachute/spider were colored with Copics and I added some silver pen to accent the spider's face and then some Wink of Stella accents to the spider too.

I then went in and added the clouds, stamped in second generation.  Once the outline was stamped I went in with a waterbrush which react with the dye inks to lighten them.  For some extra sparkle, I went over the clouds with Wink of Stella too.



Finally I stamped the sentiment and added a little bit of glitter tape to the bottom to ground things.

OK, that's all for me today.  Be sure to head over to the Neat & Tangled blog to see what the DT created and to enter to win these sets plus the adorable mix of Halloween sequins Danielle put together.

In addition, comment on any or all of my release posts this week and I'll pick one lucky person to win my new set.

See you back here tomorrow!
