My creation is one movie that still makes me laugh and is such a reminder of the 80's. SIXTEEN CANDLES! (Automobiiiiilllllleeeeee?!...)
Using Hambo's digi of Candles, I created this card for a birthday and to represent this movie of Sixteen Candles. (Hopefully!) I colored it in with Copics and used some Basic Grey Lime Rickey paper. I added some ric rack ribbon and a Prima to finish it off with the start of the sentiment and ends with, "..to wish you a Happy Birthday!" I wanted to add some stitching on the corners, but my sewing machine is rather old and if you don't move the knobs just right for the correct stitching, well, you get this little mess it created! :/ Oh well... it adds a bit of character! :)
Now swing on over to Deanne's blog for another great trip back to the 80's that will jog your memory -- or show you something you missed! Thanks for hopping by!

ReplyDeleteHello Deborah,
ReplyDeleteI do not remember that movie at all, but your card sure is pretty
and looks so happy because of all of the colors.
I loved this movie - and Jake was such a hottie! This is actually still one of Tim's favorite movies, and he quotes it often. His favorite line whenever one of the kids asks him how to spell something... "You don't SPELL it, you EAT it!!" (<-- which was said about quiche in the movie.) Super fun card and great memory!
ReplyDeleteOh yes...I just rewatched a part of this show the other day!! haha...good idea for the hop!
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I saw your card I knew the movie. What a fun card. Perfect for the 80's theme.
ReplyDeleteAww, I loved that movie! Fun card!
ReplyDeleteAwesome movie - boy was Jake a cutie or what!! Love your card and great idea!!

Hi Deborah! Fabulous card and a great '80s memory! Love that digi and how you colored the candles to go with the fabby pop art background paper! My sisters and I are going to the beach tomorrow; we'll be watching lots of old movies and I think I'll look for that one!!
ReplyDeleteBest movie of it's time and you have a fantastic card!!!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty colors you used on that card. I remember 16 candles, great 80's theme :)
ReplyDeleteTo quote Long Duck Dong.... "What's happinin' hotstuff?" That is a terrific movie. In fact I just saw a commercial that it is on this weekend on ABC Family. As for your card, it is as terrific. So creative using the candle image for "16 Candles".
ReplyDeleteas I am from England, I dont think I have heard of this, but reading previous comments on this card it must be a great movie... must remember to order it. great colorful and fun card Deborah, and the flower addition is adorable. :)
ReplyDeleteIt wouldn't be an 80s hop, with a film or two from John Hughes. This is so creative!
