12 Tags of 2013 - October

Before I left on my trip to Italy, I wanted to complete my October tag for Tim's 12 Tags of 2013, but I've had very little extra time on my hands lately. I thankfully managed to whip up a few postcard tags during my lunch and nightcap times while I was teaching last weekend at The Crafty Scrapper. I will use these for trading while on Tim's Tuscany Tour, and as you can see, I just can't help but have Italy on the brain with all the excitement I have bottled up. The second I saw the moon on Tim's tag, Dean Martin's tune started humming around in my mind, so it made sense to me to just go with that theme instead of Halloween. 
 I made the backgrounds the same way Tim did using Distress Paints. Then I added a little Distress Ink to highlight some areas. I stamped my images with Jet Black Archival, Distress Paint, and Distress Ink as well. I glittered the moon and eyes with Distress Glitter too.
I thought the David image was perfect for looking up at the moon, and having the Florence Santa Maria Duomo in the nighttime background really paints the scene.
It will be a while before I can post or comment, but I will be back in a few weeks to show and tell you about all the places, things, and people I saw while on my trip. Ciao!
