Default LSC225 International Flair

Hello everyone...todays xchallenge for you is called international flair and your task is to make a card using a different language on it! I think this will be really fun! I am loving living in Greece, but the Greek language is proving a little difficult for me...although I'm having fun trying...I have even been hired to make 50 baptism invites...yeah!!!!

Anywho, you can use any embelishments and any colors and stuff, but be sure to limit them...this is the limited supplies after all!

My Samples

Baptism

Baptism inside

Thinking of you...in French!

Thank you so much for playing along with us!

Happy sTAMPIN

Sorry for the late/early/middle of the night post! Can't wait to see what you all make!

Oh, this is fun. Somewhere I managed to write and save efarhisto poli in the proper Greek script - must see can I find it. Or I could go Irish .
Loved seeing the insde of your invitation - we did a year with a Cypriot engineering professor who taught Greek classes at night.

hmmm, I have a non-SU! BG stamp that is a different language. I'll have to see if I can find that stamp when I get home from work this afternoon; it's been ages since I've used it!

Oh! I hate that I'm leaving town today & can't play. I've been thinking lately of doing a card using MY Greek. My 12 year old son & I took a Biblical Greek class this year & I can actually read what you wrote (was wondering if modern Greek was still pretty similar -- yep!). Will HAVE to play when I get back -- thanks for the challenge!

I had fun with this.
I started out by taking a photo of a page of an old Irish Bible, but I've used several photos on cards recently, so I opted for this Greek card specially for Silvia
Funny thing, I copied it out of my Greek language course-book, but the spell-check took an accent off. I went with the spell-check.
It's All Greek to Me.

Thanks for the challenge today Silvia. I couldn't find any international stamps, so I used a cb background that has German, French and Spanish. That works.

I got the other language part done but forgot the limited supplies challenge until it was a little too late. Hope it's okay. I liked the card well enough that I wanted to share it. Here's my card: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...0&ppuser=53845

I used Gratuitous Graffiti because it worked so quickly and effectively for this challene. For this card, it is all in the ink, it made it elegant:

Many ways to say thanks
