Alice in Wonderland blog hop

How fun is this Alice in Wonderland blog hop organized by Suzi Baker McKenzie to celebrate the 150th Birthday of the book. If you are doing the hop you will have arrived here from Jenn's blog.

I am an Alice fan. Every time I see or read it I am filled with wonder both at the wonderful weirdness, and the writing just blows me away.

My favorite character .... let me give you a clue, it has long ears .....

My creation :

I made this postcard with Dylusions sprays, and the words are typed on my new trusty typewriter. The rabbit is from a set by Lost Coast Designs.
I love this white rabbit image :


I also made ATC's with three of the Four Alices from Lost Coast Designs. This is Alice falling down the rabbit hole, wondering to herself as she falls :"What latitude or longitude I've got to ?"

"Alice had not the slightest idea what Latitude was, or Longitude either, but she thought they were nice grand words to say".

Each layer is colored with distress ink, the holes punched and offset. I used a ripples stamp from Art Journey for the swirly pattern, stamped in brown.  The Alice's are stamped, colored with copics and fussy cut. I added dimensional between each layer, hopefully you can see the depth in the close up :

And here are all three ATC's I made : 

Now off you go to Black Dragons blog. Thanks for stopping by, enjoy the hop.

The full blog hop list, dont get lost, dont fall down any rabbit holes !
