JULYVSNH.... And the Final Challenge is......
Break out the popcorn! Curl up to read a good book! It�s time for the final challenge. O.k. so you can�t really do any of that till you�re done with the challenge but start thinking about it and you will get your inspiration!
Create a card that is inspired by your favorite book or movie. For instance, if my favorite book was Harry Potter 4 Goblet of Fire, I could do a Halloween card with a goblet sitting on fire and smoke coming out. Then I could use a stamp saying, Happy Halloween.
You need to tell us in your description what book or movie inspired your creation. Remember to include JULYVSNH in your keyword section and post a link to this thread so we can all enjoy your work. So get your thinking caps on and start creating! It can be funny, scary, romantic, playful, etc.� You never know what it is I'm looking for!
If you are having trouble, here are some suggestions courtesy of our fearless leader Leslie (Graciesmom):
HP- Halloween card/something haunted/ghosts,etc
Romance Novel- a love card
Pretty Woman- could use Haute Couture set
Anne of GG- could use farm (been a while since I read that?) or use a kid/girl on card
In Her Shoes- make a shoe card
I know it's corny but here is a sample of the Harry Potter card.

Awesome! I happen to be a book FREAK, so this may take me a few minutes... luckily for me, I have a few favorite books, so I should be able to find some stamps that go along... off to scour my bookshelves to find some ideas!

You don't have to do just a book. You can do a movie too. For instance, if my favorite movie was (and it is) Somewhere in Time. I could do a card with a clock on it. |

I am completely stumped on this one. I read so much that I can't pick a favorite. But of the books that are my favs, all have animals like mice and cats and of course I don't have either in stamps. :/

Pigs in Heaven
Mom- I already thought of you and the cat books!
I am uploading now. I knew instantly what I would do for this one. One of my fav authors is Barbara Kingsolver. Pigs in Heaven is about a six-year-old girl named Turtle & her mother. It is the follow-up to Animal Dreams. I made a cute piggy card, and now I want to dig out my old copy of the book & read it again.

My favorite book since High School is Leaves of Grass, a collection of poems by Walt Whitman. The explanation of my stamping is in the description section of the gallery page. __________________ You don't have to take on the world, just get on its good side. -The Hip |

It was tough to decide between Much Ado About Nothing, Pirates of Penzance, and lately A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. So I went with my avatar....Adventures in Babysitting.

I did a card based on the children's book "The Snowman". I just love the pictures! (What can I say - I'm a big kid at heart!)
Anyway, here's my card:

Ok, mine is simple and I don't think I'll be able to use the card for anything, but it fits.

Here is my card:
Breakfast at Tiffany's
It is from the quote in the movie: �I'm like cat here, a no-name slob. We belong to nobody, and nobody belongs to us. We don't even belong to each other.� ~ Holly GoLightly

Okay, mine is still pending as I am typing this but....I chose my all-time fave book, The Great Gatsby. The card is meant to reflect one of the final lines in the book:
"Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us."

Thanks for the great challenge! One of my favorite books is The Secret Life of Bees. Not my most creative, but it's really late and I'm about to fall over.

Sheesh, that was tough. I went with a movie. When ever I see this on TV I stop and watch. It is Parent Trap with Hayley Mills. I love when they go camping with the city slicker and they tell her to hit a pan with a stick to scare the bears. Hey, City Slickers would have been a good movie too. LOL

Mine was inspired by the book and movie The Notebook. My roommate and I have two copies of the book and the movie in our apartment and I think we watch it almost weekly. Not to mention that we have the men in our lives watching it even when their not here. So naturally it was the first movie that came to mind.
