  2. Ciao Alessandra *_*

    Vorrei partecipare al concorso (dato che mi è quasi presa una sincope quando ho visto l'invito xD giustifico così la fretta).
    Andiamo con ordine:

    Il mio insegnante preferito sarebbe Anna Castagnoli. La motivazione potrebbe sembrare semplice, tuttavia non lo è. Adoro le illustrazioni con/per bambini, ed il suo stile mi ricorda molto quello di un artista che aveva illustrato il libro di favole italiane che mia madre mi leggeva da piccola. Nonostante l'abbia incontrato svariate volte nella mia vita, tramite le sue opere ovviamente, non ne ricordo il nome ._. Tornando a noi: trovo che la resa della realtà che da tramite ciò che crea sia molto pacata (non amo le cose eccessive xD); ed in questo caso mi ricorda un po' le tue, di creazioni. Forse è in gran parte anche per questo che la preferisco ghgh.

    Per quanto riguarda le 'altre cosette', ti allego tutti i link dei posti dove ho parlato del giveaway:

    ♥ Il mio blog:http://lacrimanera.iobloggo.com/
    ♥ Il mio blog, ma in inglese (o, almeno, ci provo!):http://frachan.livejournal.com/1825.html
    ♥ Sul mio twitter: http://twitter.com/princesspervy/status/13597082754
    ♥ Sul mio FB: http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100000291703573&ref=profile

    Spero di aver fatto tutto bene (seguo sia il tuo blog che quello della FAF, per incismo u.u non dimentichiamoci punti salienti!).

    In bocca al lupo a tutti, e grazie!!
