Love Remains the Same


I created this card for 4 challenges.

Cinema Saturday Creative Challenge #63-Australia
Our Creative Corner-Sketch Challenge
Saturday Spotlight with Hidden Potential #15-Let the Sunshine In
Allsorts Challenge week #36-hearts and flowers

The movie at the Cinema Saturday Challenge Blog is Australia. This is such a beautiful, romantic, moving epic. Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman are just so great together in this movie. I cried when he thought that she was killed in the army hospital and when he saved the orphans on the island and finally found her at the end of the movie. Sorry for the spoiler! I was going to try to NOT do a romantic card but I just couldn't! I am just too much of a romantic!

To make this card I rubbed red, orange and yellow ink on a glossy panel. I traced the image of the man and woman that I got from the internet. I filled it in with an embossing pen and embossed it with black. I stamped the birds (Verve) with Versamark and embossed them with black. The paper is SEI. The border punch is Martha Stewart and I added the heart bling. The requirement for the challenge is to use Kraft paper on your card so I printed the song lyrics on it.. The lyrics are from Love Remains the Same. It isn't from the movie but I really think that the words really fit this movie. Thanks for stopping by!
