I have created a duo of tags.
I cut them from white card stock and coloured them with Distress Inks. I used gray and orange.
I dripped some water on them and dried it with the heat gun to get some lighter spots. I also stamped the background randomly, using the same gray and orange inks. I added some white and black stamping for interest. (There is a list of all the stamps that I used at the bottom of this post.)
I stamped Frankenstein and the Bride of Frankenstein seperately on white card stock and coloured them very lightly with Copic Markers, cut them out and adhered them to the tags. I combined him with some gravestones (stamped separately as well, coloured and cut out) and her with blood drips (stamped directly on the tag with red ink).
The words are quotes from the 'Frankenstein' and 'Bride of Frankenstein' movies and I typed them on my old typewriter. I cut them into strips and adhered them to the tags too, adding a little shading after they were glued down.
Lastly I added some ribbon.
I used the following stamps:
