Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - Animal Antics

As this is the first Saturday of the month...this is my second post of the day...please scroll down for my Penny Black Saturday Challenge DT post.

*********************

This week it's Kate's turn to choose the theme of the Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge, which is:

'Animal Antics'

We have two fabulous sponsors for this challenge:


Prize from Crafter's Companion - £10 gift voucher!

and


Prize from DigiDarla Designs - 5 digis of the winner's choice!

I've used 'Circus Act Dogs' by Penny Black to make a bookmark. I started by cutting the edges off a manilla tag, then rounding the corners to make a bookmark shape. I inked over the tag with 'Stormy Sky' and 'Faded Jeans' Distress Inks, then inked around the edges with 'Tea Dye'. The paw prints are a background stamp from Hobbycraft, and are stamped in 'Tea Dye'. I threaded some string, and seambinding ribbon from the Ribbon Girls through the top.


I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
