How to: devenir un mime dans un cirque

Mesdames et Messieurs!

Bienvenue au cirque!

Vous verrez des choses effrayant, drôle et totalement génial...

OK, I used to learn French in secondary school, but here I used a Google's translator... Why? Read the post and see the card and you'll know everything LOL

It is an honour for me to be invited as a GDT for 

  for making a TOP 5 at the previous challenge. It happened so fast this time!

So, here I am as a GDT for the new challenge which is

CIRCUS

for celebrating the National Circus Day!

I knew from the start what I am gonna do. I was making a little research for my previous card, which was a CAS card, and I have to admit I liked some of them. To keep practising (yeah, I'm THAT kind of person!) I decided to go CAS style again. I remembered I downloaded a funny freebie some time ago, which was my inspiration for the carnaval, too (we dress up during carnaval, not for Halloween).

The card is made according to Tuesday Morning Sketches sketch:

 

And here's the card:

 The 3 Mimes are from Wonderstrange and you can find them HERE. They are so funny! I only colored their berets with promarkers. The sentiment says 'Happy B'day - this is your day', and it is a rubber stamp. I used a distress ink 'aged mahogany'. Red seemed too bold for me.

 OK, I tried, but I'm not so cool as they are, but funny enough (I guess):

 Back to my card.

I also used an old page from a French book for kids here together with a twine.

 I popped out the Mimes with a 3D tape, as well as the sentiment.

 The las element was those stamps from Viva Decor set.

 Thank you for visiting my blog and for giving me an opportunity to be a GDT again!

 This card is also for the following challenges:
