Alice In Wonderland

I have of course returned to creating an Alice In Wonderland whatnot again. It will be the first of many this year, as 2020 is the anniversary of Sir John Tenniel’s  birth 200 years ago. He was the artist who so beautifully illustrated the Alice books.

I turned one of Tim Holtz hare dies into the white rabbit, and several of my other Alice stamps joined him too. I used watercolours, and polychromo pencils for my colouring.I used a little piece from a paper doily to make Alice’s  apron.

I would like to add Alice to the following challenges.

I love Elephants !

I love elephants, and I often try to draw them in my journal. Jane Davenport bought out a new line  of wild and whimsical stamps which included an elephant so of course it had to come and live with me ! The  stamp has a lovely little lady balanced on her head, on this occasion I just wanted to use the elephant. I took my time to ink up the stamp trying to avoid the lady. I wiped off  the ink which still managed to find its way onto the lady.

Water colours are my favourite colouring medium,  I used them to create my background, and also to add colour to my elephant.

 Kindle your Spark of Madness! These  adorable hares are having lots of fun frolicking around my water coloured background. The brilliant sentiment is a stamp from a set by Dina Wakely.

A clean and simple card today. I love hares and couldn’t resist making another card featuring a gorgeous hare. Xx

Australian Day Card

I made this simple card today for Australia Day. It is heartbreaking to think of all the lives lost in the forest fires in Australia. xx

December Daily, Book Folding and Napkins

I have finally completed my December Daily for 2019! I cut a selection of pages, envelopes, tags etc, originallyI was going to use book rings. I soon decided that they looked too bulky, so I opted for ribbon instead.

I wanted to keep it simple and easy to do, so I used a pad of stickers from Kaiserkraft which incorporated numbers from 1 to 31 which were very useful. 

I have also recently tried book folding for the first time. 

I also recycled a beautiful Deer image from a serviette.
