That phone brings back so many memories of these old fashioned phones that I have always adored. Your watercoloring is fantastic (as always) and I really will try your technique this time! The details are perfectly done, especially all of the texture!

When I was in high school, I had a friend who had a phone like this (but in white) and I thought she was very uptown to have that cool of a phone! And my parents still have a rotary phone (that works) in the basement! It doesn't do so good when they tell you to press one! LOL! Lovely card and thank you for being our guest designer at Retro Rubber!<br />PS - I am not as old as you and Katy - but the baby oil was our sun tan oil too!Jane Knudsenhttp://www.seejanestamp.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906821977326854247.post-74528548244599652402015-07-21T13:57:25.643-04:002015-07-21T13:57:25.643-04:00Katy, I did have a phone like that, one of several...Katy, I did have a phone like that, one of several rotary phone as I was growing up, but it was light brown, so pretty.

I did not have a phone like this one but definitely had rotary phones! You did a lovely job pulling the colors from the color inspiration photo.

Believe me, I had NO privacy when I was talking to my friends, the darn phone was in a little table by the living room, that was next to the kitchen so, if it rang, I just couldn't talk at all without everybody knowing, sheeesh!! But still, those were the days when we used to wait anxiously for THAT sweet phone call. <br />Thank you for stopping by. <br /><br />Maria Rodriguez.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14975622954781952749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906821977326854247.post-16627029907682426542015-07-21T06:36:31.946-04:002015-07-21T06:36:31.946-04:00Another Guest Designer!

When he was young! I used to love the sound of the rotary phone and remember when I wanted some privacy or when i shouldn't have been on the phone that it didn't make so much noise and tip me off that I was on the phone!
