No Bones 'Bout It

We attended the NY/NJ shoebox swap this past weekend in Middletown, NY.  Lots of fun to get together with the girls for a day of chatting and stamping (and if you live nearby, you need to join us next time!).

I wanted to make a coffin card, so this is what I ended up with for my shoebox project.

I used a coffin box I made last year as a launching point for this design.  The skeleton lies inside the coffin with a "toe tag".  Love it!

This is the first and second iteration on the inside.  I think I like it better with the patterned paper.

I'm also sharing this project on this month's Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge.

I love the spider web image, the black and white piano keys can be represented in the patterned paper used for the rosette, and of course the rosettes themselves are reminiscent of the flowers used on the wreath.  I'm just missing the blue...
