I'm back with a new mixed media fantasy project.
It's an artist trading block and my inspiration was a very romantic fairytale.
Can you guess what story I mean???
A little bit difficult, or?
...Lost in the forest, Belle's father Maurice seeks refuge in the Beast's castle, but the Beast imprisons him for stealing a rose. Belle ventures out in search for him and finds him locked in the castle dungeon. The Beast agrees to let her take Maurice's place....

I really had a lot of fun to work with the amazing Calico parts and I am sure
(in preparation for the time for creating Christmas gifts) it will certainly not be my last order.
Thanks so much !!
Happy crafting!
