M is for Mirror, M is for Maleficent

This is our entry to #PACAlphabetChallenge, held by The Paper Artist Collective. The challenge was to create an alphabet letter using three colors only. Ours was created with Fabriano Tiziano 160gsm paper in Amaranto, Pistacchio, and Sahara, and we used Excel Blades tools.

We came up with the idea of representing two Disney’s villains: on one hand, the Mirror from “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”; on the other, formally and chromatically, the feeling of Maleficent, from “Sleeping Beauty”.
