Princess Tiger Lily

Right after Thanksgiving, we went to see the Broadway production of Peter Pan with Cathy Rigby. We listened to the audio book weeks before to get her out of the Disney story and into the true story of how things are. The biggest lesson learned -- Tinkerbell has a foul mouth. Haha...she did in the production as well even though you don't see her. We didn't have to watch the Disney animated movie but we did watch the other Peter Pan movie.

Riley of course got a crazy idea that mom could make her into Tiger Lily for the night of the show. I dug through the closet and found a brown sweatshirt in Michael's closet that was too big. I cut the thing up and stitched together a fitted, Indian Princess dress. I even hand beaded the thing.

This layout you can't see her cute little dress but you do see two of the photos I shot. I had taken the photos on my Mark III but transferred them to my phone and used three different apps with various effects on the images. I then transferred them back in and used a grungy overlay on top of the photos...just around the edges. The same overlay is on the background sheet, photo mats and pictures. The beads and feathers were the same as on her costume. The red feathers were plucked from one of her Tahitian costumes off the hip belt. I added the Prima flowers only for dimension sake and I had yet to use any of them on layouts since purchasing them wholesale so many years ago. One of these days I will finally make a dent in my stash. was an amazingly quick and easy layout to complete. The paper is from My Little Shoebox.
