Chapter 11: little people....Big Wonderland

CHAPTER 11: Little People...Big Wonderland

`Tweedledum and Tweedledee
Agreed to have a battle;
For Tweedledum said Tweedledee
Had spoiled his nice new rattle.
Just then flew down a monstrous crow,
As black as a tar-barrel;
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel.'

Hello and Happy Monday Morning to you all!! I have had this Kraftin Kimmie image available from Tickled Pink Stamps coloured up for about a week now and the pretty girl was just waiting for me to put her on a card! My mojo has been hmmm on holiday for a bit so when that happens I always try to find a challenge to help motivate some mojo! I came accross this sketch for Sweet Sunday Sketch challenge 66 and LOVED it the minute I saw it! I also saw that the Kraftin Kimmie challenge is Flowers. The flowers, leaves and pearls are all from Bizzy Becs And the Doily and KK stamp are from TPS. So here is the sketch and the card I made for it.

A close up so you can see the *sparkle*

This is the Pink paislee paper pad I used to make this card, it is available in my online store that is opening next week! I am absolutly in love with this paper pad!

Keep an eye on my blog, I will have a link for my store on here next week as well as a grand opening blog candy right here :)

**My online store**

Your all probably thinking is this store ever going to open??? HAhha so I was probably a little premature announcing that I was opening a store LOL. The website is just about finished just a few tweaks, I have added all my stock to the site and should be ready for opening next week!!!! I am sooo super excited and thought I would share a snippet of some of the paper pads and stamps I will be stocking! Check back again next week for the grand opening and a special grand opening candy {TBA}

Chapter 10: Queen of Tarts...

CHAPTER 10: QUEEN of TARTS...
"On this the White Rabbit blew three blasts on the trumpet, and then unrolled the parchment scroll, and read as follows:
`The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts,
All on a summer day:
The Knave of Hearts, he stole those tarts,
And took them quite away!'

Uh ohhhhhhh...someone has stolen the Queen's Tarts! That's a no-no! We need to restore the sweetness back to Wonderland, don't you agree? That means it's time for a sweet treat here...or maybe a mushroom or two? I think I saw one floating around here that said "Eat Me" ;)
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to incorporate FOOD into this week's project! Everyone loves a little treat, right?

Enjoy this cup of coffee heheh
