Quarantine Quickies #91 & #92: Hole in One/ Spider's Web

I can't believe that it is five years today since I started this blog.  For the first couple of years, my posts were a little sporadic, but I have been posting daily now for over three years and thoroughly enjoy being part of a wider community.  2020 seems to be the year of the tag for me, so it is only fitting that I share two more today.
I always seem to find the perfect background paper on my inky pile for these tags.  I am following the first 100 quarantine Quickie prompts over on Mission Inspiration.

Cover a #8 manilla tag with a piece of inky copy paper, seal with matte medium, dry and trim the excess. (Clarity Mixed Media Journal stamps)
Using the 1 digit from the Clarity Two way Overlay Infill Alphabet and Numbers set, stamp a circle of 1s leaving a hole in the middle. Use Onyx Black Versafine ink.
Add a second partial ring of 1s at the bottom in the same manner.
Add shading using Faber-Castell big brush markers, blended out with a Pergamano blending pen and nibs.
To finish, add the prompt using a black Posca pen.

For tag number 92 I used my Cricut Expression for the second time in a few days!  Cover a #8 manilla tag with the top layer of a piece of inky paper towel, seal with matte medium, dry and trim the excess.
Add the Cracked Glass stamp by IndigoBlu in Onyx Black Versafine ink. Heat emboss with clear powder.
Cut a spider out of black pearlescent card using the Cricut Paper Dolls Dress Up cartridge (1.75”) and add it to the ‘web’.
To finish, add the prompt using a black Posca pen.
