Cinderella's Friendship ** 3rd post today**

Digi is from Sassy Studio Designs

This image reminded me of the scene where Cinderella was feeding the chickens! I added lots of detail and dimension to this card...the only thing you might have to look closely at is the glitter dots on the left side of the white oval. What do you think....does it look like a working Cinderella taking a break to make some friends??

Oh Alice - Sparkle
