Photos of the Ballet Concert

Hi everyone, I hope you had a great weekend!

I just quickly want to show you some of the Ballet Concert Pictures.

The concert was “Peter Pan” and I was a “Pearl” at the lake on the island and a “Lost Boy”, one of Peter’s friends and little Danika was a star at night when “Wendy” was asleep in her room.

Back stage – make-up.

Me in my “Pearl” dress and Danika as a “Star”.

We had little crowns and a ribbon with a rose around our necks.

She is so cute!

The stars whore “star crowns”

Act 1 – Wendy’s bed room

It is evening and Wendy is playing a card game called Solitaire

They where awesome!

Night falls 

A close - up picture of the dresses

The stars come out and Wendy falls asleep 

Wendy’s dream 

Wendy is woken by her regular visitor Peter Pan who asks Wendy to read his favourite nursery rhyme:

“Mary Mary quite contrary

How does your garden grow?

With sliver bells and cockle shells 

And pretty maids all in a row”

Mary from the rhyme 

The silver bells

Cockle shells 

And the pretty maids all in a row

Then there was an interval for 20 min

Act 2 – The Lagoon

Peter Pan, Wendy and Tinker Bell arrive amongst the clouds above the lagoon.

They enjoy the lagoon characters before going on to the island.

The clouds

Dawn

They made smoke come out when she came in and it created an amazing effect! 

My Dad took the pictures during the concert, without a flash light and I must say I think its stunning!

Then the sunbeams came

“sea pumpkins” , I just love there dresses

Anemones 

Flamingos

I love this picture!

The mermaids

And a close up picture of the mermaid’s dress 

The pearls

I love the way my dress was made.

And the beautiful sea princess!

Then another 20 min Interval

Act 3 – The Never Never Land

Peter Pan is happy to be back with his friends and all the familiar characters on the island. Captain Hook tries to capture Peter Pan but Peter Pan is once again too quick for him. The West Wind blows Hook off the island and everyone celebrates freedom form the dangerous Captain Hook:

The Lost Boys!

The big girls gave aunty Colleen a big bunch of flowers and photos, in a frame of this concert’s ballerinas.

Dear Aunty Colleen!

It was so much fun and very pretty! 

I hope you enjoyed the pictures, taken by my mom and dad 

Have a blessed week

Thanks A Billion Bubbles - Box

Hi everyone hope you’re all well.

I was a bit sick this week, but I’m much better now.

And it’s time for another challenge over at Stampin for the weekend!

Can you believe two weeks has past already?
We are kindly sponsored by Meljen's Designs .
Meljen's Designs kindly sent all the DT’s digi stamps to use for this week challenge.

I decided to use the bunny bathing and use it on a thank you box.

During the past few weeks one of my ballet friends’ mother helped my mother drive me around for the classes and rehearsals and my mother wanted to say thank you. So I made a gift box for her and my mother brought a little gift to put inside.

So here it is:

When I think of aunty Tracy I think of the colour blue. I just think blue fit well with her!

I had paper printed with big blue bubbles for ages and just didn’t have the right theme to used it for - it fitted this digi stamp perfectly!

I coloured the Meljen's Designs digi stamp with the following Promarkers:

Sandston – for the bunny’s body
Rose Pink – for the ears

Carmine – for the hat

Sky blue – for the bubbles

Gold – for the bath

Henna – for the bath brush

Yellow – for the bath brush’s inside

Cool Grey 1 – for all around the stamp

I also stuck a blue flower in each corner of the stamp.

I wrote “Thanks A Billion Bubbles” on the tag, I punched two golden eyelids in, threaded a blue-dotted-satin ribbon through the eyelids and made an upside down bow.

I put some lace with a thin blue ribbon on top at the bottom of the box.

I also put two big golden eyelids at the top of the box and threaded the same ribbons as at the bottom, through, to carry the bag.

And here is the gift my mother brought to put inside.

The perfect gift to go with the digi stamp and paper, don’t you think?

Please go to Stampin for the Weekend and take a look at all the beautiful cards that my DT friends made. They are stunning!

I also took part in the following challenges:
