Halloween ATCs

I got inspired today to do my halloween atcs (just click on the link) for the byhandartists yahoogroup swap. The splatter background is the Tim Holtz one that I've used before with some halloween inspired colors. Office Depot is going to start questioning by extensive use of computer spray cleaner! I used the bat cutouts Mary-Beth sent me this month and either a Martha Stewart web and spider stamp or the bare branch stamp I got from Impress Rubber stamps. The webbed background I received from Wanda at a giftie in a swap package and it just "screamed" Halloween! I used Tim Holtz Harlequin Alpha Grungeboard for the big letters. I colored it with archival ink, souffle pens and Krylon Silver. Two of the atcs are napkin art I did last year and saved. These were great fun and perfect for a chilly fall day.

Okay, you know how dense I am when it comes to art. Are the halloween atcs via the link yours? They are simply amazing. I can just see you being hauled into the backroom by a couple of Office Depot employees and interrogated about your use of computer spray cleaner.

Yes, those are mine. I tried to make the album of them the picture and link, but haven't figured out how to do that. Sue did that once with a group of pictures. I'll have to ask how she did it.
Thanks.
And glad you enjoyed the video.
You'll have to check out the halloween one I posted on facebook. Your grandson might enjoy putting heads on the characters. I did!
Thanks for visiting!
