My Princess

Today I am sharing a layout I made for the Friday Design Team Challenge at Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.  The challenge was to make a project using a Fairy Tale theme using bling!  I chose to do a princess layout.

For this layout, I used several files.  The sun is from the Pooltime Fun Collection.  The tree is from the Lemonade Stand colleciton.  The castle is from the Castle Pattern.  The horse, as well as the princes clothes, are from the Storybook Series Sleeping Beauty Colleciton.  The princess bear is from the Dress Me Like a Princess Collection.  The male bear is actually the same bear but dressed in the princes clothes:)  All of these are from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.
