Let's go to the Movies

Let's go to the Movies, well not at this moment but the challenge over at Simon Says Stamps challenge is just that. I've always thought this WOJ stamp looked a bit James Bond but he wasn't my first choice the card below I was thinking of James Dean, but I felt the card didn't work very well for the challenge.
Back to James Bond the card was inspired by the image below and papers are those DCWV Linen closet. A cuttlebug embossing folder, not forgetting MS punch and the ticket, well lets say this was the best one.
I printed off the words off the PC and used a ticket stamp with the words covered and stamped over the printed ones, I know its off centre but trust me after several attempts this was the best one.
This time I used DCWV citrus pack and I think the sketch was last weeks papertake weekly but don't hold me to that. I just wasn't happy with this card I think because I was thinking a man's card that it all went boring.
Don't forget to check out the DT and there's a fab prize of $25 for the winner to spend at Simon Says Stamps too.

Two fabulous cards Debby, love the papers on your James Bond one (think I be adding to my wish list!!) and such a great layout. Love the bottom one too, although perhaps Oakley's a little too 'clean cut' for James Dean lol, but I do love your colours and layout.

Frances said...

Both fab Debby but I think James Bond has the edge - love the circles & sentiment. as for your tip - don't worry I'm not one to do more housework than is absolutely neccessary LOL . . think I'll just have to do a bit more stash buying to get the old mojo going again ;) starting with some of the new Magnolias - am kicking myself for not getting the Magnolia kit this time having just seen how fab they are over on Kathy's blog and a few others. x
