WICKED WEDNESDAY ATCs #16 - FAIRY TALES/NURSERY RHYMES

This weeks challenge over at Wicked Wednesday ATC challenge blog is fairy tales/nursery rhymes.
I started off by searching the web for downloadable images because I didn't really have anything suitable, even in my image folder. I found this site :
loubyloocreations@sbcglobal.net
On there I found 2 that I thought I could use, Humpty Dumpty and Little Red Riding Hood, so I bought them both. I started to make my entry using Humpty - and may still make him - but in the end decided on the other.
Here she is being chased by the big wolf (actually, my wolf is good and doesn't chase anything!!):
 I've just realised that I haven't 'grounded' her with a bit of shading, but I will do that. I made a step card in order to make everything pop.

The little house and trees are from 'Build a Snowy Scene' stamps designed by Lindsay Mason and distributed by Personal Impressions. See, Christmas stamps can work at other times of the year too. I made the sky with distress inks and coloured the little girl with Whispers pens. My other exciting news, which follows on from my previous post and the happy yesterday, is that I was picked as one of the top 3 for Wicked Wednesday again last week. However, not only that - if that wasn't enough - they also made me cry tears of joy by asking if I would be a guest designer. How exciting is that eh? To say I am thrilled is such an understatement. So folk, watch this space.
