Bittersweet Marie: the Itty Bitty Book Project

These are the first embellished prints of my page for the 'Sweet Marie' Itty Bitty Book Project.

Was Marie Antoinette a naive young woman out of her depth in a turbulent political climate? or just a girl who saw a cake which said 'eat me', and couldn't say no? A cautionary tale close to my heart (and stomach)!

Click on the images for a closer look, and for more details about the design see this post.

Wow, they are beautiful! Very clever.

Just a question though ... couldn't the Queen of Hearts cut up the tarts with a knife?
