Unusual Alice in Wonderland Challenge

Alice in Wonderland Card


I created this Alice in Wonderland card for a challenge going on at Poisoned Peas. The challenge was to create an "unusual Alice in Wonderland" card. I found the most peculiar Alice image I could find and then further enhanced her strangeness by further elongating her neck with buttons. It just so happens that some of my other favorite challenges require buttons this week. I colored the image with chalks and colored pencils. The skeleton key is a rubber stamp from Simply Betty Stamps. The key is mounted to the card with double glue dots to make it "pop out" from the card. The card is embellished with two yellow buttons, a turquoise ribbon bow and a golden metal heart lock charm.

Along with the Poisoned Peas challenge (#5 Unusual Alice), I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Fat Pages with Attitude - #18 anything goes
Crafty Bloggers Network - anything goes
Smeared and Smudged - buttons
Haunted Design House - #143 movie madness
