In a State of Happiness...


I created this card for 2 challenges.

Our Creative Corner-Sketch/Inspiration Challenge
Cinema Saturday Challenge #58-Roman Holiday

The movie for inspiration this week at the Cinema Saturday Challenge is Roman Holiday. I think I had seen this movie a long time ago but I watched some of the clips to refresh my memory. You got to love Audrey Hepburn! The requirement this week was to use pearls. When I saw the sketch at Our Creative Corner, I knew that I had to combine them! The woman stamp is Hot off the Press. I cut around it with post stamp sissors and layered a sticker from Colorbok over it. The sticker in the postcard is also Colorbok. I inked the edges to make it look old. The sticker at the bottom is The Wright Stickers and the paper is Doodlebug. I added the pearl bling. I tried to use mostly black and white because it is a black and white movie! Thanks for stopping by!
