"Fairy" Tale



I snagged this free adorable fairy costume the other day and I've been dying to use it. The only thing is that I couldn't think of what to do. Then I thought about all of the cool collage layouts that I've been seeing lately and had an idea. Grace, my 3 1/2 year old has a great imagination so I asked her to tell me a story about a fairy princess. This is the tale that she told and the layout to go with it. She was so excited to see herself as a fairy princess. She also thought that I could just print the fairy costume so she could wear it.

This is her story (I smoothed it out a bit, lol) :

Once upon a time there was a girl dressed up like a fairy princess named Grace. She went into the forest and met a squirrel and then it began to rain. The rain stopped flowing and the sun came out. Then is was Valentines and everybody sang the Alphabet song to Grace. A bear came and chased her to her grandma’s house where she saw a wolf. She went inside and started eating popcorn when she heard a clinking sound. The roof was on fire! A fire engine came and put out the fire. The stars started to twinkle in the sky. Santa came and brought Grace a new baby. It was her
birthday and she said that she wanted some streamers. After her party she ate her dinner, played a game with her grandma, and lived happily ever after.

Tiff... this is the cutest thing ever! I love all the holidays in the story... lol! Darling!
 
Now who woulda thought that fire made a clinking noise?
HOW cute is that! Love the layout, story, and the cute little one!
So fun!
 
Tiff, I just had to comment on this one. I discovered your blog from the blog freebies post, but when I scrolled down to find this last night I grinned like an idiot. I've just used the Maya Joy fairy on a project of my own yesterday, so recognised it.

But when I read the fairy tale from your daughter, it really made my day. We have a 3 1/2 year old daughter who would have told almost exactly the same story - word for word - right down to Santa thing, and a need to include bears and big bad wolfs into everything. I read your story out loud to my hubbie at the time, and we understood completely. Thanks for sharing this all.
