drive in

Movie Madness is #223 challenge theme as chosen by Debbie who will also choose the winners. For my card I pulled out two MFT sets that I’ve had for a while and not used very often. There are a lot of tiny pieces with these sets and I have to be in the mood to play with them.

Initially I chose the movie and decided how I would represent it as a Drive In event. First I cut the screen and the frame. I coloured the frame black with a Copic marker and the screen was done with a gray pencil. I stamped the rain drops using a Design by Ryn stamp and heat embossed clear. Then I die cut the umbrella using an unbranded die to which I added colour. The movie title is computer generated as is the sentiment at the bottom of the card. I added some clear tape over the screen before attaching to try to make it look more realistic. After die cutting the car and the people heads, I used pencils to colour before assembling. It is easy to get frustrated with these tiny pieces and it took some time to get it together but I like the end result. A little bit of splatter in gold before I added the screen and car and it was finished.

Thanks for stopping by, it is appreciated and I hope to see your creations in our gallery soon.

    1. Thanks Judy. I think one has to be in the right frame of mind to do it as it requires patience. In my case that is sometimes in short supply

  4. Such a clever, creative take on the challenge. Fun card with all of your details. We still have a few local drive in theatre and one actually celebrated it’s 90th anniversary and is the oldest drive in theatre in the USA.

    1. Would you believe, I have never been to a drive in in my life? Nothing like this in Britain and already disappearing when I first came to Canada.
