TV Challenges: Week 4
Posted by: Katie Scott
We interrupt Ella's TV themed scrapbooking pages for a commercial break!
Even with TIVO and DVR, we all still watch commercials now and then, right? We all have our favorites and the ones we can't stand to watch. A couple weeks ago, I was telling my daughter about that Wendy's commerical from the '80s "Where's The Beef." I found it on
youtube.com and showed it to her; you can find just about any commercial you can think of on youtube.com!
My kids LOVE the Geico commercials. I can see the appeal, but my job as a personal-injury attorney puts me at odds with the well-spoken, funny, and cute little gecko. Regardless, I couldn't resist taking pictures of my kids at the Gulfport, Florida Gecko Fest with their Geico masks on. Too funny!
Barb made us a sketch!
supplies: cardstock + letters (Martha Stewart).
Journaling: "My kids love the Geico commercials + were thrilled to wear the Gecko masks. *My job gives me a love/hate relationship with Geico."
Week 4 Challenge: Make a layout inspired by a commercial or print ad, or choose a title that's a pun on a popular advertising catchphrase, or incorporate the words "brought to you by" or some other familiar adverstising lingo.
Thanks Barb for the sketch!
