The challenge du jour is the 100th Cinema Saturday Creative Challenge. Today's inspiration is Pride & Prejudice. Of course, I think of the version of the movie with the dreamy Colin Firth, but I digress.
Most people will come up with normal cards for this challenge, but I never claimed to be normal. After Colin Firth, the first thing I remember about this movie is the mother's voice. OMG, it's like nails on a chalkboard. Every time she went into a drama episode - "Oh, my, shall we ever find suitable husbands for all our daughters?! *wail*", all the girls would sit there demurely and roll their eyes. I can only think THIS is what was going through their minds:
See her lace hanky? We were supposed to use lace. :)Since I was feeling guilty about my distraction, I used the same image and made three of these:
There. One challenge done, and a total of four cards for tomorrow's inventory. Now off to the Post Office and the grocery.Thanks for stopping by!
How cute! Great take on the movie!
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA oh I love it!!! How funny. And how PERFECT.
ReplyDeleteAnd speaking of perfect, I whole-heartedly agree about Colin Firth. :-D
THAT is SO true!! I love your fun and creative take of the P. and P. Perfect sentiment and image! (PS: I hope I will not become Mrs. Bennett when I grow old....). My DD will definitely roll her eyes!
ReplyDeleteYou said it and this card is just perfect. Says it all. Loved the lace handkerchief idea.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! Perfection! I had a similar train of thought. There are too many deliciously awful people in P&P not to find them inspiring. ;) Adore the little hanky!
ReplyDeleteLove it!! The quote is perfect for the film -Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteI love the little lace hankie too.
Great card!
