I used two stencils; the one I used on the purple and orange was much more successful. Win some, lose some! Maybe I didn't mist the first one enough or let it sit long enough? I thought I did but it's very very very hard to see (hint: it's a pattern of small rectangles). For the CAS, I gathered all my pumpkin type stamps and did a variety of Halloween and Thanksgiving tags; the Halloween ones have a silver ghost brad at the top. I really like how the second set of tags turned out; I will try this with other papers etc. Check out Lyn's lovely Christmas cards with this technique!

what fun and what an assortment of pumpkins! I love 'em all!
I had trouble with the technique myself...but your purple/orange blend of inks are quite good! The added fibers take them all up a notch.

I can just about see the patter on the left tag. It came out great on the purple tags. I really enjoyed this technique, but I'm not sure how many stencils I own that would work quite right for it. Great job combining the challenges today!

Fun set of tags, Jean. I had trouble with my second stencilling, I had to brayer hard to get any transfer. And on my first one, not much effect from the spritzing!
I really like the idea of adding brads to the tags, don't think I've ever done that.
