Hop Day Eight

Just interupting the flow of the hop, I had to make a card for an order! If you want to find out about the hop and how to take part, the link to the post is HERE. Today is the last full day of the hop, picking winners tomorrow on the 14th.

So onto the card order! It was a card order for a film theme birthday card for a Dad! :)

I harvested the film logos from google to make the background and then printed them out. I mounted this on gold paper. I used 3 cigarette card of movie idols to make the fan shape in the centre, and mounted them on gold too. I printed out the greeting (Little Lord Fontleroy) in a slightly curved shape and then stamped over it the Bannerific Banner from Lawn Fawn (LF339). Gold bling to finish. Not an elaborate card but it was quite short notice and needed to be mailed pretty quickly to the customer. Might actually have benefited from no faffing keeping it a pretty crisp design.

Filmed Themed Man Cards

I had a commissioned card request for an MGM film themed 70th card. I've used this card base before for men's cards - it's kind of already a bit special so less bling and ribbon etc are needed to make it stand out. It's hard to soup up a Man's card! I also needed a Marx Brothers themed card for my Bro-in-law, so used the same layout to make that. Images all from the net and converted to black and white.
