Flashdance and all things Gorjuss


Do you remember Flashdance? It's such a great 80s movie and this image from The Paper Shelter captures the look so perfectly. I recently won 3 of their images in their challenge and the great thing about them is that as well as the outline image to colour you also get a coloured image, background and a composite. I love the composite and it is coloured so beautifully I spent the time saved on colouring making an interesting layout. Th papers are Prima Craftsman and these are quite industrial looking papers, which fit in with the warehouse where the main character lived. I just love this colour scheme. I've used an MS zigzag border punch and a MB music die which I cut in half. The sentiment is from an LOTV stamp set and the metal embellishments are K&Co.

Looking forward to going to the theatre tonight to see The Haunting of Julia.

Before I go, thought I would share this pic with you. There's a new gift shop opened in Norwich and look what they have got.

There's so much that I couldn't get it all in the picture. Luckily hubby was with me so I could show him the things I would like Father Christmas to bring me.
