There is a new challenge up at Time Out challenges and we challenge you to with "Days Gone By".
You can use inspiration from any memory you may have, someone you admire, a vintage outfit, maybe a phrase or could be an old fashioned word, so many incredible possibilities! And this challenge has a twist too, use of embellishments!
We are so thankful to the very generous CAS-ual Fridays Stamps for sponsoring this challenge. The winner of the challenge will get $25 gift coupon to their store.
I chose the memories of my childhood with my friends and cousins, during Summer holidays, saved in the film rolls of those days! And I chose the film roll die by CrafTangles, the cute kids from Waffle Flower's Hello set and sentiment from our sponsor's Flower Angel. I had used these kids for my Gate fold interactive card too, that you can watch here.
I also chose the frame die by Penny black to give the feel of those black albums, quite old ones, I have seen my Grandparent's and parent's picture in those! Here are some I took when we visited my Maternal grandparents (Nana - Nani) home, in Sep 19.

Though the pictures are not in tatters like my card suggests!

What a fun card that brings back memories for me too :). Loving the way you have replicated the old style photo album as a backdrop to the photos.

I love the old photos that one might find in their own homes, or in a trunk, or attic, at Grandma's house - so fabulous in black and white film. By the way, your mother is so adorable! As is this darling card - the film strip really looks like my family, Ishani - if you add three more girls! xxx

What amazing photos - and a lovely idea to use them as inspiration for your card. I like how you've kept the colours muted as if they're older photos!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful card, and a wonderful post, and a perfect take on our challenge, Ishani. Your idea is great, and I love seeing the photos from your past. Fabulous take!
ReplyDeleteI love how you really took a path down memorylane and made the card so that I right away had to think about my grandma's photobook! Love the sepia coullur you used; another way to link the card to old memories! Hugs, Gerrina
