Bombshell "Hump Day" Hop!

Welcome to the Bombshell Hump Day Hop! Each Wednesday, the members of the Bombshell Design Team will bring you a fabulous blog hop showcasing Bombshell Stamps! You will get to see some fabulous cards and projects at each stop along the way. Make sure to leave comments to win a fab prize!

Here's how it works: Start at any of the Design Team Member Blogs and take a peek at their Hump Day project. Leave them a comment and tell them what you think about it! Then follow the links to the other DT member blogs and leave them comments as well. The more comments you leave, the more entries you will have to win a great prize from Bombshell Stamps at the end of the month!

This week all of our projects are based on Ms. September's Challenge. Ms. September is Sarah K, and she challenged us to make a project inspired by a movie. Here's what I came up with:


I just got this brand new stamp set in the mail and as soon as I looked at it, I thought of American Graffiti! My yellow car is very similar to one driven in the movie. I love this movie and I love the line where Toad tells Steve "I'll love and protect this car till death do us part". The car stamp is from a set called "Speed Shop". The image is stamped on GP110 white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copics. The card base is SU's Basic Black. The patterned paper is unknown (I received it in a blog candy prize). I also used Real Red, YoYo Yellow and metallic silver for layering. The metallic silver was run through my Cuttlebug using my brand new Diamond Plate embossing folder. The line from the movie is computer generated and the "American Graffiti" title was printed off of the Internet. Other embellishments used are screw-head brads, black organdy ribbon and pop dots.
Now that you've seen my take on the challenge, add your comment and then hop on over to the other Bombshell DT Member blogs.
Don't forget to join us again next Wednesday!!
