sleeping beauty...

Good morning everyone well all being well I should be on my way home today, public transport willing...the Irish transport system is still in the stone age I think, its only about 100 miles door to door and it takes about 4-5 hours to get home, even more if I have to wait for connections...shocking isnt it, I could fly to Italy in that time....hhhhmmmmmm now theres an idea lol...my card for today is for the Crafts and Me DT and just how stunningly beautiful is this new Runaway Princess digi from Hannah Lynn at Crafts and Me, I coloured just part of the digi and cut her out from the background as I didnt want her getting lost amongst this fabulous paper...I have no idea who this paper is by its one of the ones I bought a few weeks back...isnt it amazing and perfect with this sleepy Princess...I finished with a huge butterfly cut from the same paper and a black ribbon and knot...the stunning sketch is from My Time Made Easy challenge (but I think I may be to late for it now)...I love this sketch and left the background plain so the paper would stand out...its rare for me to be totally pleased with anything I make I always feel I could have done better but I really like the way this turned out...keep your fingers crossed for me travelling and whatever your up to have a fantastic day

    Utterly beautiful. I enlarged and studied the placement of paper and your Sleeping Beauty and it truly is magnificent. I would love to receive or design something as beautiful as this. One of my favorites of yours definitely.

    This is utterly breathtaking Mina :) Amazing colouring!

    I bought this image on the release day, but havent coloured it in yet, as I couldnt work all the details out!! :) lol. Looking at yours is so inspirational and I cant wait to have a play now.

    I had a look on the letraset site, and it doesnt mention the aqua-markers, so I would assume the fine-nibs dont work on them, but I wouldnt like to swear on it.

    hugs
