Sin City Stamps, Gelli Plates, and 31 Days of Halloween, Oh My!!

Welcome to Day 17 of the 31 Days of Halloween Blog Hop. I am also posting this for the Sin City Stamps design team blog.  As you know by now, I am participating in this month-long blog hop with some extremely talented artists.  The complete list of Wicked Bloggers (that's what we are called) are in my side bar.  There are lots of prizes in the daily scavenger hunt, and a Grand Prize worth over $300.

Today's project is a very colorful and a bit creepy card that I made using my Gelli Arts printing plate for a background.

While playing around with my gelli plate, I also made this same or similar background on a different color card stock to see what the difference would be.  Then I couldn't help myself.  I had to turn it into a  tag, or a card to slip into a pocket, or even used as a focal point on a card.  

I have prepared a bit of a tutorial for you using Snapguide.  All you have to do is click START THE GUIDE for complete instructions.
