Challenge #43 - Match Master

Thursday 28 October 2010
A very good morning to all of you!! Today is my first time to host a challenge, but before I (Alie) set the theme I'd like to thank everybody who joined us last week, we've seen stunning creations!!

And that brings a question to me: do you send your stunning cards in plain white envelopes (like I do) or do your envelopes happen to be masterpieces as well?
So to challenge you (and myself) this week, the theme is:

Match Master

We would like to see a matching pair of something!!
Like a card+envelope, a giftbox+card, there a many posibilities.

Who will be the Match Master this week?? Have fun!!!
