Halloween Bat and Witch Easel Stand Up Tag

Created this Halloween Witch & Bat
Easel Stand Up Tag at a Make & Take
at the Stamp Asylum store in my area.
Monica, the owner of Stamp Asylum, is
friends with Tim Holtz. She learned this
from him before Tim Holtz left on his
Hong Kong trip and invited people to
stop by the store to make & take it.
All supplies were provided at no cost.

I added the green gems over the brads
on either side of the ceramic '31' when
I got home.

  1. Love your tag.It turned out so fabulous. I'm a big TH fan too and was lucky enough to attend his workshop when he came to the UK.Doesn't the easel stand make it much easier to display them.

  7. Wonderful Halloween tag! When I brought my easel die up to the checkout counter, the lady wondered why I would be buying THAT. She couldn't see a use for it. But I love it. :-)
    TFS your spooky creation.
