Lord Have Mercy, It's a Play Date
I made this card using Lord Have Mercy Tuesday Sketch Challenge #83. I bought the clock paper and clock embellishment at different times but I am very drawn to old looking things. I just love this Boardwalk paper. It reminds me of pictures that I have of my Grandmother who owned and ran a flower shop in the biggest hotel on the boardwalk in Atlantic City in the 1920's. The bathing beauties come on a sheet with different poses. I just love this paper.
The colors were inspired by the Play Date Cafe Challenge #39. You can't go wrong with these colors. As soon as I saw them I knew just what paper I was going to use.
Here is the recipe for this card:
*Stamp: CTMH Express Postage
*Paper: SU, Going Gray, Black, Graphic45 On the Boardwalk, and Times Nouveau Hip to the Jive
*Ink: Memento black
*Acc: CTMH Edge Distresser, Spare Parts Clock Icons
I really like this card. What do you think?
I got a little fancy with the title. It was just to easy this time.
Thanks for stopping,
