It is something I am enjoying to create the magical pages for my son Malachi and we both love to watch Fantasty movies like Lords of the Ring, Narnia, Enchanted and Spirited Away and so many to name! Have you seen this movie
Spirited Away? It is Hayao Miyazaki one of the most popular animated movie, filled with astonishing animation and adventure. This is one of the most dazzling masterpiece I ever seen and it is wonderful work of art that is funny and entertaining but it also is brilliant, beautiful and deep. It is about a young girl, Chihiro who is trapped in a strange world of spirits. She finds out that her parents undergo a mysterious transformation then she have to call upon the courage she never knew she had to free herself and return her family to the outside world. Your children will love this because every children in my family is! Anyway, this movie made me to think how the movie is spectacularly inventive and that is what started me to do these magical pages! Here are three which I designed so far and continue to do more...perhaps up to 12 pages!
Well... if you want to know where I got these magical details, just go to my DST gallery =-)
Gorgeous pages! I especially like the last one, with the child peeking out behind the ripped page.

OMG Yvette, I never knew we had SO MUCH in commom, Spirited Away is a favorite in this house, together with the other movies you mentioned but because it is animation my little ones ask for it more often. I LOVE it!
and, I must say I love your pages and what you are creating for your little one, what a treasure, I am so inspired I wish I could come up with a story book for Matty... maybe I should just follow one of our favorite storylines hey? thanks for the inspiration :)
