Once upon at Time.......


Our first Challenge of the year over at Crafty Cardmakers is hosted by Eva.
The theme  is to Create a Fairy Tale Scene.
Please pop over for all the details and see what we have al been making.
We have Two sponsors this time The Stampman
and
           Di's Digi Downloads.

My choice of a Fairytale to be inspired by was Raspunzel, with the Princess locked in the tower.
The base layer came from a DCWV paper stack The stamp I used I think is one from 'Stamptivity'.
This was layered on embossed brick papers.
All the colouring in was water colours, with distress inks for the shading.

Thank you for stopping by, I always appreciate your comments.

    This is fabulous - it's got a darker tone to it just like the original fairy stories!

    Lovely card Yvonne, my Granddaughters always remind me of Rapunzel with their long hair, and I'm sure their Dad would be happy to lock them in a tower if it kept them away from boys lol.
