I've created a really fun, creepy tag using some of the new Tim Holtz Halloween goodies.  I cut the tag shape from a cardboard box.  I then exposed some of the corrugated insides and then painted the tag purple.  I used some gauze from our first aid kit for some interest in the background...LOL!  And I used Oxides to ink the tombstone.
