Masquerade!

Hi Everyone!
Today I worked on a tag, using an image by Smeared Ink,
The background was embossed (Tim Holtz embossing folder) and colored with Ranger's Distress Ink.
I drew the bats and hand cut them, a first for me.
The bottom piece is a die cut by Tim Holtz.
I love the Carnie image wearing a mask and the bat wings.
Image: Smeared Ink




I'm entering this piece in the following challenges:
Thanks!
Love,
Julia

    Gorgeous colors and tag! I love the texture of the embossing and the paper embellies that go outside of the boundaries of the tag. Love it! Good for you for making your own bats! Thanks for playing with Smudgy Antics :)
