** I have two posts today -- please scroll up for the hop/blog candy post!**
Morning! It's time for another round of Dueling Darlings: the Divas -vs- the Darlings! This month, our hostess was the fabulous Joan and she sent us the most amazing card kit filled with old time, vintage movie papers - or as she said, Movie Night "Old School" style!
Ohhhhh did I ever love what she sent to us with the images and this paper and wow, there was soooo much in this card kit, it was hard to chose! I think one of my favorite elements of all where these tiny little photo corners ;) All of my old photo albums have them around the corners of our black and white pictures - little black ones in most albums, as the white ones were a little harder to come by back then! For the front of my card, I actually didn't use a stamped image but part of the gorgeous Graphic 45 'Curtain Call collection' paper as my focal point. For a little history of how this silent film was remade into several versions of the movie as well as a tv series, lookie here!
I also decorated the inside of my card with some of the remaining items (and there is still enough left over to make another 3 cards!) and one of the styles I love the most in card making is a collage type look. I failed at that here, rofl, but you get the idea :) A little mish-mash of materials gives your cards or projects such a unique reflection, and more time to play with the goodies sent! Tee hee!!
Thank you, Joan, for inspiring us to think outside the box this month! As someone who grew up just within the time-frame of watching tv in black and white, this was a wonderful trip down memory lane and a treasure to use the kit ingredients you sent! Muah!!
Now be sure to stop in and see what the other Divas have created using similiar kits ~
