lasciati guidare dal bambino che sei stato

Avevo tenuto da parte una card commerciale con un bel sentiment: una citazione di Josè Saramago che dice "Lasciati guidare dal bambino che sei stato".
Sono convinta che se tutti gli adulti ragionassero con il cuore, con le emozioni e la fantasia dei bambini, il mondo potrebbe essere migliore...  ;)
Ho riutilizzato la card per darle un nuovo look, molto velocemente. :)
Mi pare che potrebbe essere una buona card maschile e - forse - anche una CAS :D .
Ho tagliato l'immagine con la citazione usando la fustella più grande del set Sizzix Framelits Die 8PK - Tags, Rounded.
Ho piegato un cartoncino a metà e con la stessa fustella ho creato una finestra nella parte frontale. Ho colorato la parte frontale con i Distress Inks (Old Paper, Stormy Sky e Bundle Sage) per riprendere i colori dell'immagine.
Per aggiungere interesse ho incollato due sottili leftovers (avanzi di un taglio con un punch per bordi) sopra e sotto all'apertura.
 
Ho incollato l'immagine all'interno della card e ho disegnato il bordo tutto attorno alla forma con un pennarello nero sottile.
Finito :D
Con questo progetto vorrei partecipare ai seguenti challenges:

  14. That's a wonderful quote, and I agree with you on your thoughts :) The merry-go-round looks fun and was always my favorite amusement ride when I was a child. I love how you gave the card a window for it too - it's almost like stepping back into time for me :) Well done!
