Coloring


By now, most of you know that I really like love the newest Disney movie Frozen. Sure thing I spotted one of the Easter eggs (hidden messages or jokes in a video game or movie) that "only the most fanatical Disney devotee might have spotted." One of the paintings hanging in the art gallery of the Arendelle castle is actually a concept art painting by Lise Keene for the movie Tangled (another one of my favorite Disney movies).


When one of my favorite bloggers, the very talented Heather Dixon of Story Monster drew a fabulous coloring page of Hans and Anna's wedding day and made a call for a coloring contest, I couldn't help but to dig out my coloring pens. (Hans and Anna's wedding day? Yes sure -- in another reality! After all, Hans is a cutie in Love Is An Open Door.)


Isn't it just sweet how lovingly the couple looks into each other's eyes?


Some of the coloring pens still bear chewing marks from my late dog Susi.


Here are my newer coloring pens.


That was my most treasured coloring pen because such a skin color was hard to find when I was a child.



Trying to get Anna's hair right.


I wonder why I don’t color more often – it’s so relaxing!



I decided to give Anna an icy blue tiara -- it's something Elsa would have created for her.



As I was coloring most of the picture late at the night, I didn't take more photos of the coloring process. So below you see the final result. I didn't see a white gown for Anna -- for me, she is far too bubbly for that. Hans wears a matching purple sash and brown suede gloves.



In Heather's -- and now my -- universe, Anna and Hans make a fine couple. If you now want to color your own version, be sure to click here for Heather's coloring page.



By the way, Heather's post about the video game Oregon Trail was the one which hooked me to Heather's blog. So funny!


If it hadn't be the Oregon Trail post, it would have been the 7 Brothers for 7 Brides post -- based on one of my favorite 1950s musicals.


Since this is a great C post, I want to link it to Jenny's Alphabe-Thursday.

    Cute! I have my behavior disorders students color mandalas to relax them. It works like a charm. ;-)
