Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality

Hello, I hope you staying safe and well. I am sharing an Alice in Wonderland card today, with one of my favourite quotes which is by Lewis Carroll “Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality.”

I created the background with water colors and also used them to colour  Alice and the flowers.

I would like to enter it into the following challenges.

Rainbow Bridge

Hello, I hope you are staying safe and well. Today I wanted to share The Rainbow Bridge poem with you. It is 20 years since my Golden Tammy passed away, but I still miss her every day. I know many others are in the same boat too. I have made these Rainbow Bridge hearts as a memorial  to our beloved pets. If you would like to make one there are more details about the easy steps on theCalico Craft Blog

Rainbow Bridge

There is a bridge connecting heaven and earth
It is called Rainbow Bridge because of its many colours

Just this side of the Rainbow Bridge there is a land of meadows,
hills, valleys with lush green grass

When a beloved pet dies, the pet goes to this special place
There is always food and water and warm spring weather

The old and frail are young again
Those who are maimed are made whole again

They play all day with each other
There is only one thing missing

They are not with their special person who loved them on Earth
So each day they run and play until the day comes
when one suddenly stops playing and looks up !

The nose twitches ! The ears are up !
The eyes are staring ! And this one suddenly runs from the group !

You have been seen, and when you and your special friend meet,
you take him or her into your arms and embrace
your face is kissed again and again,
and you look once more into the eyes of your trusting pet

Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together, never again to be separated

Alice In Wonderland Tea Party

Wouldn’t it be nice to be in Wonderland right now! With this in mind I have made an Alice InWonderland Tea Party using Calico Craft Parts. I love to use the blank mdf  pieces as I can decorate them anyway I  want, and I can use them in so many different ways! I hope you can pay Alice a visit  today to discover more, she is over on the Calico Craft Parts Blog.

Take care and stay safe xx 

Tree House Escape

Wouldn’t it be nice to escape to your own personal tree house! I can’t manage to do  that, but I have built a miniature one over on the Calico Craft Parts Blog. I hope you can climb the ladder and come and visit me there, Take care, hugs xxx

Just Keep Going

Just Keep Going, that says it all really! I used Prima Moulds and air drying clay to create the Carousel horses, and I made a simple canopy by folding paper and adding a few sequins.
Stay safe, stay strong, hugs xxx

Rainbow of Hope

Hello, I hope you are staying safe.Another 2 and half months of isolation to go, although after speaking to my dr and nurse last week it may well be much longer. But there is always hope. 

With that in mind I have made this rainbow of hope ATC coin.I embossed the tree, bunny, and grass, and water coloured the rainbow.

Please stay safe, and stay home. Best wishes xxx

Easter Wreath

I hope you are staying safe and well, in this horrible, horrible time. Easter will certainly not be the same for any of us this year. I made this Easter Wreath some time ago for Calico Craft Parts, and as Easter remains such a special time of year for so many of us I decided to still share it. More details about the wreath are on the Calico Craft Parts Blog.

I hope your Easter is as happy as it can be under the circumstances. Next Easter will  be so very different xxxx
