Saturday Cinema - My Fair Lady

What a fun film!
I was inspired by all the beautiful outfits they dressed Eliza in. And the colors, white, black and reddish pink. She always looked so Chic. And words, words, words.

I used Black magic paper - embossed in my Cuttlebug using the words (of course!) I added some black and white paper that I colored reddish pink with my Koh-i-nor pencils. I added some Bazzill ribbon. I stamped the dress and the word and shoes in Close to My Heart Le Chic stamps using Ranger black ink and embossing. I added stickles and bling to make it all shiny. It "sorta" looks like the dress at the Ball. I added the shoes to the inside.

I like lots of things about your card... the background (which is something I'm going to HAVE to play with now I've been inspired), the bling (which I think my card needs, somewhere), and the pink which I couldn't work into mine because I'm SO stuck in black and white. Great job.

Saturday Cinema Challenge

OK - I missed the last TWO! of these so I am taking no chances on what looks like another busy work week. SO here is my entry for Miracle on 34th Street. I know this line is not in the movie (and that the little girls name is Susan in the movie) but this is what I always think of when I watch this movie. The reference "Yes Virginia There is a Santa Claus comes from a child writing to the Sun Newpaper and the editor answering with the spirit of the season. The card uses Bazzil Paper and Ribbon I forget the patterned paper brand. The Santa stamp is from Oriental Trading and the Letters are Studio G wooden letters. This is colored in with a combination of Tim Holtz inks (with the SU blender pen), Koh-i-nor pencils with mineral spirits and liquid applique. Brads, floss and a decorative eyelet round it out.
