Project: A TV inspired MAWTT challenge
This week at MAWTT we have a TV-inspired theme! That's right, we're looking for cards or projects inspired by your favorite TV program.
Personally, and possibly shamefully, I am obsessed with the show Revenge. It is a trashy soap that is posing as a drama and I am just so hooked. The characters are mega rich, wear most extravagant gowns and are always up to no good!
I thought this Penny Black stamp looked like it could be either Victoria or Emily from the show, glam and hidden behind a hat so you can't see her face. She's colored with ProMarkers and I cut it out with a Fiskar finger blade. I added a touch of glitter to the edge of the hat and the bag just for extra sparkle. I also went over the gloves and belt with black marker to make it stand out more.
I jazzed up the background with a rich black and white damask print. I took a bit of white scrap for the greeting and decided to ink over it with purpleink so that it would stand out from the background paper. I added the little black bling instead of normal bling because I liked the dark texture - more in line with the show that way!
I can't wait to see what TV program inspired you this week, be sure to join in at Moving Along with the Times!
