postcard challenge

wk 35 Hungary....

I didn't have the first clue about this country, so i went to good old google, and I found two very well known voices... Firstly Johnny Weismuller, a champion swimmer, but better known for his acting roles as ~Tarzan, and his amazing yodel -like jungle call... I didn't fancy drawing tarzan though..

next i found the beautiful Eva Gabor, an actress, but also the voice of Miss Bianca from The Rescuers....I seriously love that film.

So here is my card..


I was a bit stuck as to how to decorate the page, till I came across some text, and decided to write out the Hungarian alphabet. I stained the page and burnt the edges.



HERE IS WHERE YOU LINK UP... please add your name and blog link and go visiting each other. Only link up if you are taking part in the postcard challenge.

    Inspired choice for one of the Gabor sisters! Your alphabet page is lovely, the burned edges are perfect.

    Love it! I too was quite taken with their alpha, but no, ah the Gabors - beautiful! My drawing didn't come out well enough and thus being anxious to be on time AGAIN, I did a landscape'age.

    Wasn't J first last week too...you would think he would be used to it by now. :-p
