New Challenge at My Time To Craft!

It's time for a wonderful new challenge at My Time To Craft:
Song or Film Inspired!
For the rules please visit the blog here.
I love the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's and of course had to use this as my inspiration for this challenge.  
Here is my piece:
It is an up-cycled box turned into my canvas. Used Gesso, acrylic paints, watercolors and distress inks for the backgrounds colors and textures. The image is from the internet and it was colored with a touch of red acrylic paint for the lips. 
Added a sheer ribbon and bow, rhinestones and two vintage stickpins.
For more inspiration hop over to My Time To Craft Challenge Blog! You have to see what the design team created for this challenge.

    This is beautiful Julia and it's not too hard to figure out your movie-inspiration. When I was in Tiffany's in New York, I imagined I was Audrey Hepburn. lol I love the jewel you have added and the rich turquoise sets it off perfectly. Thanks for joining us at Opus Gluei!!

    A classic! You have captured the essence of the movie with the rich turquoise colour, the luxurious bow and the glittery "jewels". Just lovely.

    What a fabulous box, Julia! I love the Audrey Hepburn image, and I think the hat on top of the box is such a fun detail, whereas the pins makes the front even more striking! I came over from MIM to visit.

    Oh my this is so glamorous! I do love Audrey Hepburn (have you seen the film 'Charade' which stars Miss Hepburn with Cary Grant? It's wonderful! It may be old, but the plot and scenery and clothes are soooo good!!) Your upcycled box is just fab! Thanks for joining in at Dream Valley!

    love Mags B x
