Lil' Pumpkin~

The sweet calm sunshine of October, now
    Warms the low spot; upon its grassy mold
The purple oak-leaf falls; the birchen bough
    drops its bright spoil like arrow-heads of gold.
   William Cullen Bryant

Ah! We woke to soft rain and a crisp Fall breeze. The sky was filled with billowy kohl-rimmed clouds and I would have loved to have breakfast in bed, but the schedule did not allow for it. College Girl headed to class, while I did a bit of Christmas shopping. By eleven the rain was gone. I did errands, laundry and worked on some Halloween tags. In the afternoon Handyman and I filled our new bird feeder with sunflower seeds and hung it in the Myrtle Tree. Here is one of the tags I finished~

 I used;

• Inkadinkadoo stamps
• Distress Ink
• Zig H20 pen
• Martha Stewart fence punch
• Ranger Rock Candy Crackle paint
• micro beads along the bottom
• Stickles, Inkssentials black enamel and Liquid Pearls 

I used a paper circle to mask the moon, then blended several inks on a plain tag. I put a coat of Rock Candy on the tag and when it was dry I rubbed ink into the cracks. The 3-D star is actually a tiny ornament but I liked it hanging near the moon! 
I think this Lil' Pumpkin is so cute! One of the best parts about October 31 is seeing adorable Trick Or Treaters on our doorstep :)
