PBSC November - 'Anything Goes' (Optional 'Anything but a Card')

It's the third Saturday of the month, so I'm back with some more inspiration for this month's Penny Black Saturday Challenge...where the theme is:

'Anything Goes'
or
'Anything but a Card'

As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome 1-2-3 Stitch:
Prize - a $20 voucher!

Ages ago, I received a pack of Prima watercolour tags as part of a challenge prize...I've never got round to using them before as they're huge for tags (8.5 inches long!), but I thought that I'd turn one into a bookmark for this month's challenge. I used stamps from the Penny Black 'Social Butterfly' set, and heat embossed them on the tag using clear embossing powder. I then watercoloured over the top using Distress Inks (Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet, Peacock Feathers, Seedless Preserves & Mermaid Lagoon), drying in between layers with my heat gun. I then splattered some water droplets over the top, distressed the edges a little, then added a selection of co-ordinating ribbons & twine.


I'm also entering this bookmark/tag into the following challenges:
