THERE LIVED A BEAUTIFUL PRINCESS

Evening Blog land friends,
Sharing a layout for PunkyScraps ( thank you for Lizzy for always finding these challenge sites)
The inspiration is 
and you can also use the sketch
I have used both the photo ( Dress ups) and the sketch

Our niece sent us a gorgeous photo of My husband's Goddaughter Remi , in the cute little dress we brought for her, so of course I wanted/needed to scrap it.
I wanted to use the recent Bo Bunny "double dot " PP I had recently purchased . I sat the photo on the PP for a couple of days, not sure how I was going to make it work. I have to say I was happy with the end result.

It is a bit hard to see , but the Prima Smile and Lock and Key chipboard and the Scrapmatts Chevron chippies I have used Croco Crackling and then painted with Shimmerz, which gives a lovely soft pastel pink effect. The gorgeous flair button is from StudioFourteen40. Thank you Lizzy for the Stars , I love them. Satin Seam binding and circle braid are from Craftqueen. The Bullrush chippy is  from Scrapmatts.
I have put the photo in a Insta frame and backed it onto a envelope I made from baking paper. I am happy with the result.



Thanks so much for calling by. I appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment. We would love to see your layouts over at Orange Paperie and ColorMeScrappy , so I hope you can find some time in this busy time of year for some creative time.
A couple of cards 
This one Lizzy inspired me to get my Shabby Chic on 

and well I LOVE Reindeer's , especially Scrapmatt Reindeer's
I also wanted to share a photo of the lovely treat Kim brought along for our recent get together ..... Delish


Peace and Sunshine
