The Sheik

Good morning all!
The card I have to share with you today is the last of the samples I made for
the launch of the La Pashe
Wrinklies at the Movies CD Rom the other week!

The movie is The Sheik!
The card is an 8"x8" base.
The paper is from the CD also.
I cut out the decoupage & layered up using pinflair glue
The matted on to some white card stock
I felt I had to give them a little privacy, so I added some sheer fabric
drapes to my simple card design. I embellished with a few gems here & there,
a couple of little ribbon tie backs and that was pretty much that!
The designs are so great, they really just stand alone & you don't need much
in the way of fancy equipment to make great cards!
I took the photo then realised that a little of the frayed fabric edge had escaped as I
stuck it down. I used a heat source to seal the edge & stop it fraying any further.
Thanks for stopping by, I do hope you like my card.
I'd like to enter it in a few little challenges:

  4. What a great card Dawn. I love this CD and have used it already but I admit that I didn't know 'The Sheik'. He almost counts as a Gorgeous Gown as well.
    I love your idea of 'privacy,.
