Hey there,
You know that magical place where exquisitely beautiful princesses fall in love with dashingly handsome princes and they ride away together on a magnificent white steed to an enchanted castle in the clouds? I think it's at the corner of Hallmarkland and Craftyville. I'm so happy to visit there regularly when I sink into my craft room chair and survey my hoard filled kingdom. I love to escape my real world challenges to a mystical burg where fairies, princesses, unicorns and well dressed animals communicate affectionately with each other and live together in harmonious bliss. Even the witches in my world are lovely and kind. My super power is a very inventive and vivid imagination. What's yours?
I recently found the time to color THIS gorgeous Conie Fong Princess Kiara image from a Kit and Clowder class. Dress folds and transparent fabric are often a bit challenging for me, but I always love practicing my shading skills on something pretty like this princess frock with gradient shades of blue and pink. Flowers are also a neglected skill that I enjoy revisiting. I fussy cut my image to include the castle in the distance and mounted it in sections with mounting tape on a glittery gold Cricut-cut frame embellished with pink iridescent gems. I embellished the flower centers with gold Stickles and created the sentiment tag in Cricut Design Space.
My card recipient is my beautiful daughter who turns 41 this month. She's Disneyland-obsessed so I know she'll appreciate this nod to Cinderella. She'll always be the little cutie who sat and watched Disney movies with me for hours back when the world seemed a little more mellow. Young souls never grow too old for magic.
Thanks for visiting.
Go forth and BELIEVE.
Nancy
