Hello again! Are you starting to enjoy the May flowers, or like us, still working off those April showers? If you remember the song, White Rabbit, from the seventies, you'll know where I found the inspiration for this card, and after all the rain we've been having I'm sure I'll find lots of these in my lawn.
For this card, I've used two images from Just Inklined. One of them, Fairy Toadstools, is currently available as our 200 member freebie over at CDAC. Be sure to head on over if you are not yet a member. It makes a gorgeous background stamp, and I think it works perfectly with the new Wonderland digi stamps.
Today I've used Alice, as my granddaughter has a birthday this month....and she loves to read. I have a few more ideas in mind though, so you will probably see another card or two with this theme.
The background image has been coloured with DI, while for Alice I've used Promarkers. For both, I've shaded with Prisma pencils. You will note that I've used a script stamp behind the image, which lends itself to the idea of reading.
The sentiment is a freebie from Bizzy Becs, which you can find here. I've added some dimension by attaching both Alice and the sentiment with foam tabs.
Hope you enjoyed your visit, and if you have any questions you could go ask Alice, but better still, leave your question in your comment! Until next time.....have a wonderful day!

Hi Joyce
ReplyDeleteHow are you - seems your weather is improving then? We apparently have had the dryest April on record - so not many April showers for us.
Great Alice card and love the toadstools but I am not a member so can't get it - shame.
Take care and enjoy your day.
luv and hugs {brenda} xoxox
