Halloween Bottle Cap

Last week our local art group met and Lynn had a great little holiday project for us. We altered giant 4" bottlecaps (I think from Maya Road?) which she had spray-painted black for us.  She also shared a huge selection of her Halloween papers, stamps, ribbons and "stuff" for us each to do our own thing.

Mine turned out fairly simple as I had taught class all day and was creatively exhausted.  I layered two patterned papers and overstamped with a stamp set from Artistic Outpost.  The pumpkins were stamped on scrap cardstock, cut out and layered over the fence.  I added Glossy Accents to the fence and Stickles to the inside pinked paper circle as well as the rim of the bottlecap.  A tiny silver moon sticker was added to the "sky."  Ribbon was knotted through a hole punched in the rim. This was a fast and fun project and will be a cute accent to my Halloween decor.
