'Fin'tastic!!!

Hello there :0)

It's a very tricky challenge this week at Less is More.... one layer week and a card inspired by a film!!!
Luckily it doesn't have to be a favourite film because this one is certainly not !!..... although it's pretty iconic and easy for you to guess....


.... yep it's Jaws!! I do remember watching it but not for long and mostly from behind a comic or magazine!!
Funny when you look back, with film animation and computer graphics as they are nowadays, you realise how plastic Jaws really looked :0)

When you open this card you'll see this little chap from Clearly Besotted stamps is not such a scary shark either, although his teeth still look sharp!!


I know, I know... sorry for another punny sentiment, it's how my brain works I'm afraid and the only way I could make this a usable card with a shark in it :0) I coloured him with promarkers and wrapped a strip of vellum across him for the water. The sentiment is stamped using a Lawn Fawn Alphabet, very handy when you're making up punny sentiments and they are so easy to line up on the acrylic block too :0)

Thanks for your visit today :0)

  20. Love how you've put this together Jenny. The peep hole adds to the tension. Love your water and your sentiment is perfect.

    I remember going to the pictures to see jaws and had my eyes closed when the head came out of the boat. It was many years later before I dared watch that bit of the film!
