Rapunzel

 This is my second Design Team card for Inkspirational Challenges  . This image was kindly provided by A Day For Daisies , who are our sponsor this month.
Immediately I saw the photo inspiration, I thought of fairytales. Here is Rapunzel letting down her long hair so her prince can join her in the tower.

I printed the image onto card , masked it and created a background with my favourite Stamposaurus brick stencil and sponged ink.  I took of the mask and, using a scalpel (bravely, I think!) cut away the background inside the window and stuck it onto some patterned paper (from DCWV Once Upon a Time stack). Then I coloured the window, birds and Rapunzel with Promarkers and paper-pieced her dress.

I hope you like it and I hope you will come and join us at Inkspirational Challenges.


I'd also like to enter this for the 'Create a Fairytale Scene ' challenge at Crafty Cardmakers .

  4. I LOVE this scene Marina :) Really cool that the DP shows behind Rapunzel (one of my favorite fairytales when I was...ok...younger;)). I guess there is a princess that would be one lucky owner of this one?
