Princess Julia - a new take on a Halloween page

My girls dressed up as princesses this year for Halloween and they had the pleasure of attending a couple of pre-Halloween parties before the big day.  The photo on this page is one of them.  That might help explain the bunny face with a princess dress.  Julia was adament that she wanted a bunny face and she didn't waiver once for the whole 45 minutes we stood in line for her turn.  So here she is, Princess Julia, with her cute little bunny face.

Supplies:  Paper (Bo Bunny & Simple Stories), Flower & i-Top (Imaginisce), Pearls (Teresa Collins), Halloween Border Sticker (Recollections), Chipboard Frame (Magistical Memories), Ribbon (Offray), Leaves (Prima)



This isn't your typical Halloween page by any stretch of the imagination.  In fact, sometimes when I look at it, it feels as though there's been some sort of identity crisis.  There is a girl dressed in a beautiful gown with a face painted like a bunny rabbit.  The layout is comprised primarily of pretty things like pearls, flowers and ribbons and then you find a big 'ol spider and web frame around the photo.  The colour scheme says anything but Halloween.  Oh well.  If nothing else, it makes you take a closer look.



I have decided that this is my absolute favourite way to use the i-top - with BURLAP.  Many thanks to Melinda Spinks for that genius idea.


This photo and layout make me smile.  I hope it does the same for you.

Cheers,
