Once Upon A Time......

 Shopping Our Stash had a very good break and now it's time for our first Challenge of 2024!! Once Upon A Time so it's fairy tales, princesses, knights, dragons, if it isn't obvious let us know what the fairy tale is. I had some problems with this challenge, every fairy tale I thought of I had nothing to design it with so I went with a "new" fairytale made by Disney. If you can't guess what it is I will add it to the end of my post.


The image is a digital image from Lacy Sunshine and I have had it for a long time, sorry didn't take note of the date I downloaded it, but I have a lot of here images all of them were free.  I used Elizabeth Craft Designs Oval and Postage stamp Rectangle dies I added two extra layers of ovals under the image to elevate it. The inky background was a semi-fail attempt at blending and somehow it surfaced when I was putting the card together I did put it through a falling leaves SU embossing folder, of course I didn't check which way the inked side was on so instead of using the embossed "white" side I used the debossed. blended side. 


I added a couple of leftover scraps and a Hero Arts vertical  ancient sentiment.

Now if you haven't guessed what my nursery rhyme is I will let you know it's Disney's Ariel from the Little Mermaid. 

I am adding this to 

Seize the Birthday ~~ #275 Embossing (I used dry embossing)

  4. I struggled with this challenge as well. I had to Google fairy tales in an attempt to find one that fit the images in my stash!

    Your Little Mermaid is perfectly presented! Nice blending on your embossed background!
