It's probably the result of being married to an unrepentant punster (who is much better, thank you to those of you who enquired after him) that I came up with this one.
The image is clipart downloaded from the web - I hope nobody goes looking at my search history...it includes terms such as hanging, gallows, and gibbet. ("Honestly, officer, I was doing research for a crafting project...") I added in the words, adjusted the colour to sepia and printed it out on supersmooth card, which I diecut into the tag shape. I gave it a few layers of DI (Scattered Straw, Weathered Wood, Peeled Paint an Frayed Burlap) till I was happy with it.
The last job was to make the hangman's noose (I've always wondered how to tie a hangman's knot and now I know how!) and adhere to the tag.
A bit grisly - but I hope you like it anyhow.
Thanks for visiting,
Crafty hugs,
Keren

Like it? I LOVE it!! I am also married to a punny punster, so I really appreciate the humor here.
Fabulous tag and noose. Thanks for playing in the dungeon with us this week at HDH.
I do like it, too! Not everyone taste but for sure mine! Fabolous!

It is a bit grisly but it is very beautifully done Keren and the pun really is quite funny.... Hugs, Anne x
