For my card today, I'm featuring the gorgeous ALICE from the Alice in Wonderland set by Annie Rodrigue. I am so in love with all of these images!!

She's stamped with Memento ink onto Cryogen White paper and then colored with Copic markers. I then fussy cut her out and popped her up from a frame cut out with oval Nestabilities. The DP's are Little Yellow Bicycle matted with Bazzill cardstock.

I added a mat that was made with a Martha Stewart PAP set topped with more DP. Lots of machine stitching here, too.  The flourish was created using one of my favorite Magnolia Doohickey Dies.

The sentiment comes from the set of Wonderland Sentiments which are fabulous quotes from the book! I just hand cut the banner and popped it up as well. I can never get enough dimension on a card! The more, the better!! :)  The bow was made with May Arts silk ribbon topped with a threaded button from my stash. And the artsy fartsy view....

So that's it for me today! It's time to move on to see what the awesome Alice has in store for your viewing pleasure today! Don't forget to leave comments along the way! Thanks so much for hopping along with us today!! Hugs!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Sneak Peek and Challenge Day!!

WHEW! I had a little bit of scare yesterday! I lost my blog for a bit and couldn't sign into blogger! I figured it out about midnight last night and was finally able to access everything again.. I'm telling you, that was NOT a fun time!! But it's all good now, and it's Saturday which means it's Day Three for Sneak Peeks of the new December stamps from Kraftin' Kimmie AND it's time for a new weekly challenge as well!!!  Featured in our sneak peeks today are the new AWESOME stamps from Annie Rodrigue!  For the new challenge, we've got a fabulous sketch from the wickedly talented Krafty Girl Michele!

If  you don't know yet,  the theme of Annie's stamps this month is Alice in Wonderland!! FABULOUS!!!  For my card today, I've used the Dormouse! Can you see that he's hiding Alice in the teacup (see her hair that's giving her away?)

The image is stamped with Memento ink onto Cyrogen White and then colored with Copic markers. I used circle and petite scalloped circle Nesties to cut out the image, and then machine stitched around it. I've also used one of the awesome Wonderland Sentiments on my card!  The DP's are Graphic 45 Halloween in Wonderland. matted with Bazzill cardstock.  The scalloped part of the sketch was created using a Magnolia Doohickey Die.

The two cutouts behind the Dormouse were simply cut out from another one of the DP's and then matted onto cardstock. I added a Tim Holtz metal corner and cut a couple tabs with the Cricut and the Fabulous Finds cartridge. Those were finished off with a couple threaded vintage buttons.  I added some crinkly ribbon topped with another buton and some twine.

A little peek at the inside too. There is a lot of machine stitching on this one! Today is the last day for sneak peeks, which means the full December release will be available for purchase tomorrow at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!!! Believe me, I will be putting in my order! LOL!  Be sure to visit all the Krafty Girls and Guests and leave some love at each stop! You can find them by visiting Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Blog.
