Once Upon A Time

GDS has released a fabulous Collaboration Kit called Once Upon A Time, that is sold in individual pieces by each designer. So many styles and goodies to choose from. I used Dancing Princess Designs' portion of Once Upon A Time to create this page.


Not too long ago we watched Prince Caspian, the second movie in the Chronicles of Narnia series.
I wonder if book three is in the works? I was actually starting to like the characters in Prince Caspian -- so much more than in the first of the series, the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.
Anyway, there was a song played in the movie that I just loved. I watched to the end for the credits and found it was The Call. The lyrics are quite sad, but the song begins:

It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word

And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry

I knew I wanted to scrap a page with these lyrics. Once Upon A Time provided the perfect opportunity. I thought that the lyrics (although taken out of context of the song) described a mother's love and how I felt when I first learned I was having Little Miss -- a feeling, then a hope, an array of feelings, until a love that was "louder and louder" and then a love that would do anything for a child. So now you know how my mind works....

This is what I came up with



and here is Once Upon A Time by Dancing Princess Designs available at GoDigitalScrapbooking



While you are there, check out the other pieces too. Here are a few that I have on my WishList
