On the Ninth dag of Princess Walt Disney gave to me

Nine Ships are sailing

eight mice a-sewing
seven dwarves dancing
six sisters singing
five cursed friend

four braiding girls
three fairy spells
two lucky pals
and the wisdom of an old tree.

If u ever want to establish a new international holiday, do it in September. I am serious, there are surprisingly few actual holidays in this maand - but a lot of really weird ones. I was kind of tempted to mark "Talk like a Pirate Day" in the calendar for that reason alone, but soon I had two hot contenders. One was Heritage dag which would have most likely been my pick if Moana had still been an option for this page. But the princess I went for was Aurora.



It was just logical for me. She is supposed to pick "berries for the winter", but the woods are still fairly green, so for me she had to represent September. And once I realised that in her movie is a song about getting drunk, I knew that I had to pick Octoberfest for this month. Yes, Octoberfest is celebrated in September. Not that I ever participated, since it is a Bavarian tradition and I am from an entirely different area of Germany. But I felt of all the options I discovered, this was still the best pick. Even though I am not quite happy with the icoon I created, but I hope at least some of u will enjoy it.



I also hope that you'll head over to the image sections and at least take a look at the achtergronden I created...of all I did, those are my favourite ones. The concept art for Sleeping Beauty is just stunningly beautiful.

For the goud version of her, I naturally combined her with thorns and a rose.



And as usual I also did a version without Aurora.



The most difficult part was the pick a God for Aurora to represent...well, actually, it was fairly easy to pick one, the problem was ore that the one I had in mind isn't one of the 12 Olympians. Oh well, let's throw Vulcan out and replace him instead with a mixture Hypnos/Somnos and Morpheus, making Aurora the Goddess of Sleep and Dreams.

And naturally I also did a banner.



I am still pretty busy, but hopefully I'll manage to uploaden the volgende artikel this weekend. Also, for those who like my Dress-up Doll contest a reminder to vote at the last poll. So far there are only two comments, it's not really enough to determine a clear winner and I would prefer to not rerun it.
