I have one more VSN after this one; I've enjoyed these challenges very much, thank you to all the hosts.
This one is for Adriana's VSN-groove thing (feature music or dancing). Audrey Hepburn was in musicals, had trained as a dancer when young. She wasn't much of a singer, although she could carry a tune. I also used today's sketch for this, turned on its side. I used some printed cellophane from flowers for some of the strips.
Today's ABC16 challenge is G is for Glamorous. Yes, Audrey was glamorous, not because she wanted to be, she just was. The quote on the card is hers. Here are a few others:
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands: one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.
I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.
I don't want to be alone; I want to be left alone.
What a lovely woman she was, inside and out. After a horrific childhood in Holland during WWII, she burst on the Hollywood scene and I've enjoyed everyone of her movies. My favorites are Roman Holiday and Charade. Oh wait, there's Sabrina too. I think her happiness in life was being loved by someone and having children, which was not easy for her. She had a lot of love to give and her glamour was just a side show. Thanks, Audrey!

Fabulous card, and the beauty that exists in the things we do far outlasts our physical beauty. A beautiful tribute to a woman with these attributes that will forever be her legacy!!

Awesome card and tribute to Audrey. She was the epitome of glamour. A very true quote. I always said to our eldest who lost his hair through alopecia when young and he thought he looked a freak, that beauty was inside a person not on the outside. Happy New Year Jean. Hugs
