Soooooooo...........Here is my creation!!!  I am so into the metal tape art technique at the moment, so I thought I would have a go at making a prison door type thing to go with the cute PIG INMATE digi image and sentiment. It was so much fun to do, I covered BBQ skewers with foil tape to make the prison bars, and a cut up spellbinders cross to do the door hinges. So can you guess the Band??? well .....actually, I have chosen two bands that are fitting for this card!!!!
 
 
Yayyyyy!!! I'm sure you guessed it....Firstly it could be "The Wanted" The English-Irish boy band who have had hits with Chasing the sun, and Glad you came.
 
 
The second band that I found fitting for this is " The Killers" The American rock band formed in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2001


 
Hope you had fun in my Blog Hop Post, Now Hop on over to Sue

  8. Hi Jane! Yay! You brought us into the 21st Century! I really dated myself with the band I chose, lol. I'm just feeling pretty hip that I knew who The Wanted is and that I had heard of the Killers--one of my son's favorites. Your prison door is fab--love the hinges! Pig inmate is one of my favorite digis. You rock!
