Day 150: Ladybug & Mushroom Tin

another item for the Swap-bot swap, "Down the Rabbit Hole Scavenger Hunt" swap.  this is actually the back of the Tweedle tin i made.  i thought the mushrooms and ladybug were cute together and whimsical enough for Wonderland.

these stamps are all from Octopode and i colored them in using my Zig markers.

Day 149: Wonderland Caterpillar Flat Notecard

i'm like 2 weeks behind!  i've just been not so motivated or when i am, i have to catch up on Swap-bot swaps.  ugh.  so, here's something fast and quick that i made for a the Down the Rabbit Hole Scavenger Hunt swap.  i wrote my message on it. 

used 4x6-inch white cardstock and stamped the caterpillar and "The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland" on the flat front in blue and rounded the corners.

Day 110: "Who Are You?" Wonderland Caterpillar Postcard

i recently joined the Swap-bot swap, "Whats Your Favorite Quote ... Postcard" in the Down the Rabbit Hole group.  we're supposed to make and send 3 postcards featuring our favorite Alice in Wonderland quotes.  it was a good excuse for me to buy a new stamp set from Stampington!  actually i bought 3 sets.  (yah, i've been working a bit of overtime so i'm treating myself to new goodies)  haha.

Day 100:  "Who Are You?" Wonderland Caterpillar Postcard

the quote is from the Wonderland Silhouettes Stamps set by TJ Designs.
the caterpillar is from the Down The Rabbit Hole Stamp Set also by TJ Designs.
the larger shadowy mushroom stamp used for the background is a random rubber stamp i got off Ebay.
the smaller black mushrooms are for the My Little Shoe Box Summer Collection 2010 - Green Clear Stamp set (item # 10061). 

i stamped the shadow mushrooms in brown on green cardstock.  rubbed the brown on the edges of the green and the cream colored card stocks.  the other images are all stamped in black.  i found a random piece of orange tissue in my scrap bag, so that added a bit more color and texture.  i added some blue using my water brush pen and the blue ink pad to color Alice's dress and the caterpillar.  to make sure the postcard arrived intact, i used black glitter brads to enforce and embellish the caterpillar image cream cardstock.  then the green cardstock was reenforced with orange eyelets to keep it attached to the plain white backing.

not bad.  now i have to make 2 more.  but maybe i'll use a different quote and do the others with Alice.
