dragons dream dt piece..TIO#122 nightmare

now this tag is not my usual style,
but i hope i have captured the recipe details , for this challenge
where we have a new crafty recipe:
a murder of crows,
a blue moon
and a chill wind.
.....................so here is mine:


I started by masking off a moon, and adding lots of inky distress
 to the tag, using lots of distress colours.
I then added my version of a tree
using a Tim embossing folder
and then adding more ink.



i then added some crackle accents and chunky pearl glitter ( thanks Mum!)
to give the chill idea?......
you with me?

I then added some trees in stormy skies distress,, some crows
and inked my blue moon..



Finally i added a sentiment
and a crow (from Dylusions bird on a wire set)
and gave him a glossy beak.

make sure you hop across here to see all the fab DT makes
and why not dream with the dragon a little and add your own entry
there is now the chance to be picked as a dragon dreamboat too!

have a fun and inky day,
if all goes well we will be on our way to holidayland as you read this!

  15. I love this tag! Simple as that really... branches silhouetted against the moon are always going to get my vote, and you've completely captured that night time haze which sometimes happens. So atmospheric - another great piece of work!
