When I saw this sketch, I immediately thought of a 50s style television set.
Here's what I came up with...
Here's a view showing the acetate 'glass' TV screen
And a view showing the sides of the 'TV'..
and stamped the card with the 'Woodgrain' background stamp from Market Street stamps.
I used three brads for the knobs and a Nestie die was used to cut out the 'screen'.
I backed the 'screen' with acetate to replicate glass.
Doncha just LOVE those adorable Gingerbreads!!!
They are PK-417 'Faceless Gingerbread Doll Large'.
They were a delight to paper piece and colour, meaning you have an endless choice of costumes for them!
(I made that little wreath on the 'wall', with two circle punches and a MS branch punch).
Actually, all the materials for this project were gleaned from the Peachy Keen workshop.
If you hadn't already heard, I've just got home from spending TEN of THE most wonderful days in the company of the Peachy Queen herself, her delightful family and some of my wonderful PK Design Team friends, Lorie, Janice, Lisa and Kim. Amazing people!
Not forgetting the hilarious Lauri and the sweet Dobea, beavering away in the background.
Now, back to the challenge.
Please hop on over to the Peachy Keen Challenge blog for details of the prizes up for grabs for FOUR lucky winners and to see the fabulous creations my amazing DT Sisters have come up with for your inspiration.
Have a great week and happy crafting!
