The topic at Take A Word Monday is Vintage Beauty so I decided to do two things at once. I made an ATC for a swap this month and created it to suit the theme from TAW
It's a simple piece from me this time, but I love how it has turned out.

A few weeks ago I went to a Flea market and found some cigarette cards of old movie stars that I thought I may be able to use in my art. They are real photo's not a print, so they are quite thick but have aged beautifully. Today is the turn of Ms Maril De Forest and pretty she is too.
The background is scrapbook paper in a grey and paler grey stripe. Attached to that is the photo of Ms De Forest. Over the top I thought the Tim Holtz film ribbon was so fitting and I added the text down the right hand side from my computer and coloured with some Pumice Stone Distress Ink.
I finished it off with a small star from my stash.
