Hi everyone and happy weekend to you. I am getting over a cold and feeling better today.
I've had this picture for a while on my work table and finally made a card with it. I hope you like it.
When I use pictures of people I always wonder who they were and what they were thinking when the picture was made. What was their life like? I try my best to be respectful when adding their images to my cards.
I love maps! And 7 Gypsies has just come out with a wonderful set of papers that are nothing but maps! Yippee! So, of course I had to use one here!
It took me a while to decide how I wanted to lay out my card. When I added the blue ribbon, it was pretty bright. So, I added Tim's film strip ribbon over top of it which worked nicely with the theme of travel too.
Close Up!
While this gilded decoration's original orientation was vertical, I used it horizontally to point the way to the map.
I used a strip from a 7 Gypsies ATC overlay on the bottom of my picture and added beige pearls.
I added one frame of Tim Holtz' film strip to accent the word Africa on the map.
I hope you liked today's card. Come back again for more ideas and inspiration!
