Altered Alice Challenge with Wonderland


Good morning friends! This month Stampendous is partnering with Altered Alice Blog, a wonderful challenge blog that is all about the story of Alice in Wonderland. We've been sharing creations every week using a Stampendous Stamp set called Wonderland that was released in January. It's a perfectly fun set for collage and keeping in time with our every day life, really, like "Sorry, I'm late" was a common phrase when I worked outside the home.

SSC1135 Wonderland Perfectly Clear Stamps
This month's Altered Alice challenge is inspired from Alice in Wonderland, Chapter 2;
“After a time she heard a little pattering of feet in the distance, and she hastily dried her eyes to see what was coming. It was the White Rabbit returning, splendidly dressed, with a pair of white kid gloves in one hand and a large fan in the other: he came trotting along in a great hurry, muttering to himself as he came, `Oh! the Duchess, the Duchess! Oh! won’t she be savage if I’ve kept her waiting!’”– Chapter 2; Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
Play along and enter your wondrous creations to possibly win our Wonderland stamp set by linking it over at the Altered Alice Blog.



Here's a creation I made back in February with the Wonderland set. Just think of all the places you can go with this set in a Splendidly Dressed way! Here's the link to see how I made this card.

    I love the different textural elements you added to the front of your card, and the torn paper, inked edges, ribbon. It all works! Thanks for sharing.

    Love the vintage sepia color scheme, and that embossing powder with all ihe inclusions adds such fab texture! Sorry the blog post was so late, I was getting pretty stressed, but what a joy to have you lend your talent to The Altered Alice this month!
