DAY #17 OF THE 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN and a new challenge at DRAGONS DREAMS.

Welcome to day #17 and the new challenge at DRAGONS DREAMS.
..... it's Sue's turn  to set this fortnights challenge. So in the words of Oscar Wilde - 'I CAN RESIST ANYTHING BUT TEMPTATION'....... Personally I cant resist much at all.... Sue's recipe requires the use of a resist technique, the colour red and a temptation - it's that simple! Don't forget to use at least one real stamp..... and of cause it must be a TAG!
I took a piece of red paper, stamped a Harlequin pattern in grey......which you can hardly see now but.... Once dry i stamped with versamark, text and a winged heart heat embossed with clear embossing powder then inked all over my tag with black ink.
The word passion is stamped over the top in black.Now who can refuse a little PASSION? The image is from SMEARED INK...stamped onto thin paper, fussy cut and pasted on. I coloured my image with promarkers... and the red matte layer is also coloured with them.... then the whole lot layered onto black card stock. Happy Halloween is a rub-on as i didnt fancy heat embossing over my already embossed back ground...a bit of a cheat i know... but hey... we all have to cheat at times :) It would be great if you could join us this fortnight.... Hoppers the full blog roll is on my side bar.... see you tomorrow for DAY #18 BDx
