Not my circus, not my monkeys...

 Hey everyone!  Did you see the fun challenge at:

AllSorts #814 - Matching Pairs

???

I love "real" challenges and I had fun with this one for sure!  I created a card with a matching bookmark/tag:




I would also like to enter this bookmark/tag into the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Monday - Add Some Texture

Pammie's Inky Pinkies - Anything Goes

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers - Never Been Used Before (the coffin dies)

Lil Patch of Crafty Friends - Anything Goes

I had fun playing with my Gel Plate for this one - I used some circle stencils and acrylic paint for the background.  I then found a Distress Oxide Ink in a coordinating color green and distressed some watercolor paper before using my new nesting coffin dies on them. I added a skull die, some text stickers from a Tim Holtz sticker book, and a white ribbon to the bookmark.  For the card, I colored the Stamping Bella stamp with alcohol markers and fussy-cut her out, then attached her with foam dimensional tape and finished off with some more text stickers from another Tim Holtz sticker book. Peace.
