Beauty and The Beast

This is my second post for today. Please scroll down for Humphrey.

I have a friend who often asks me to make special cards for her and this one was for her daughter Lucie's Birthday. They have just come back from a holiday in Florida with their husbands and Lucie's Favourite film is Beauty and The Beast. I was asked to make a Disney themed card and this is what I came up with. It is an 8 x 8 card and I printed out a photo from one of our trips to Orlando. As the original story is French I believe, the characters appear in France in EPCOT's World Showcase.

I remembered I had some paper from Michaels with the Eiffel Tower on it, stamped the grunge postcard from LOTV and used DI Vintage Photo on everything. I added some ribbon and punched stars and wrote on the postcard as a reminder of their holiday.

Challenges:
By The Cute And Girly Once Upon a Time
Stampalot Happy Birthday
Wags n Whiskers Anything Goes
ABC DT Anything Goes
My Mum's Craft Shop Favourite song/movie (Lucie's favourite movie - Beauty and The Beast. One of my favourite songs is Beauty and The Beast by Stevie Nicks)
