Nostalgia

When my husband I were teens, we had our fads in fashion etc. as the kids do now. So I thought,
how could I create a card that represented our era. Well, here it is:

In the 50's a favourite colour scheme was black and pink, so that became the basis of my card.
Rickrac was also very popular as was polka dots. So my "dittydot" flowers came into play as well as my black velvet rickrac ribbon.
(Oh did I mention that velvet was in too?) And of course, added
bling was a favourite on our poodle skirts. Although my skirt had rock n roll dancers on it. I always did something different from the crowd!


My materials: SU card stock, A.muse bling, $store ribbon and paper by Costco.
