"THE ELEVATOR PRINCESS"
While waiting for the elevator to restart, the princess rued the day she so flippantly declared that learning a third poem was not necessary.
I'm loving this fun little girl inspired by the Danita Art blog. Her dress and paper pieced heart are made from some of my fun pretty junk papers. The quote is from Lemony Snicket and the paper doilies are Maya Road.
The background is a collage of papers/map. There is even part of an asian newspaper that I got as packaging from a gift that I purchased when we were in NYC a couple years back. I'm in the habit of saving all snips of paper that look promising. Even the kids bring me their wrappers from things now.

Well that couldn't be more darling!I just love Danita too. And that quote is great - I'm suddenly feeling really insecure about being stuck in an elevator, I don't think I'd be entertaining enough!

ha ha, today I had the chance to read the elevator quote - good one :D
It is always that much more special when the kids want to help
I LOVE this - and your work - I'm a big fan. Love that your kids bring you their papers too. You've trained them well :) xoxo
She's cute. I love her crown and heart.
This is such an endearing page. I just adore the Elevator Princess with her lovely dark hair and pretty crown and the quote is fabulous. (Love Lemony Snicket!)
This is so adorable. I love the colours and the girl is so cute! It is so cool when the kids want to help - mine collect all kinds of random things for my art + i love that they want to be involved x
love the rosy cheeks!
very nice artwork ....love it
What a lovely piece! I was just telling my son the merits of memorizing poetry. He loves Lemony Snicket, I'll have to show him this quote and see if he recognizes it.
Unique and beautiful work.
Fabulous page - I love your style. Great to see you spotlighted at PPF :-D

she's gorgeous. I love how you put this together from so many different elements and the old ledger is the perfect backdrop.
