This week's COCII Challenge is

Technique 3: Marbled Stains
 page 46
Sponsored by eclectic Paperie
All the details for the technique are in the book,  I used the TH dress form stamp and some lace to create the mannequin,
 And stamped the tag with various other TH stamps and finished with a little die-cut bag I had embellished.
I'll be back tomorrow with more art
Thanks for stopping by. See you again soon.
