Lights, Camera,...

Hello All,

Today I will be playing along with AAA Cards and CAS Colours & Sketches. Both challenges, for me, were unusual. A movie theme with a unique sketch proved to be quite difficult. However, I managed it and came up with this card. Here is my solution, enjoy!

The lights of Hollywood illuminating the sky. This was done by adding color one line at a time with colored pencils on black cardstock. After many attempts I found this technique to work the best. 
I didn't concentrate on a particular film but decided to concentrate on glamour and fame that comes with being in Hollywood. 
It is hard to see but embossed in clear is the countdown to showtime. 3, 2, 1 can be found around the sentiment. Also, the film strip sentiment seemed very fitting for the theme of the card. I think it will make a fantastic encouragement card for a young woman or teen.
 Challenges Entered:








Well, that should do it for me!! Thank you so much for stopping by and do appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to spend time with me. We will see you soon. Take care and happy stamping.
