CKC Challenge #2 Humorous title

Saint Denis was beheaded then walked 6 miles before dying...so the story goes.
This earned him a spot on Paris's famous Notre Dame Cathedral.

I find statues are often funny if you imagine what they are thinking or saying.
This concept has been used in TV commercials etc.

In my case I imagined one of the other statues talking to St Denis, probably the one on the right.
 
I kept my layout reasonably simple. The backing mat is a paper bag which I've punched 2 holes in then attached twine.
 Buttons form my main embellishments, but if you have a keen eye you will notice the "admit one" ticket referring to the fact that there is one in every crowd and my washi tape features punctuation marks.
 
 
You will never look at statues the same way again.

I'm entering this on Come and Get it Challenges where the criteria is weird and whimsical.
