Alice in Wonderland


'Alice in Wonderland' theme appeared at concourse Mid Valley.










The huge mushroom was made off sponge !!


Both of my girls said ....."Whoa !"


Mad Tea Party



In the film, Alice is now nineteen years old and accidentally returns to Underland (misheard by Alice and believed to be called Wonderland), a place she visited thirteen years previously. She is told that she is the only one who can slay the Jabberwocky, a dragon-like creature controlled by the Red Queen who terrorizes Underland's inhabitants.


Still giggle the famous saying of the Red Queen ...'Off with his head!'

Michell Ward has challenged us to use tissue paper in this Crusade No. 38 ~ GPP Street Team .

Prepared the background layer with facial paper (with mod podge).
Let it dry and put on acrylic colour randomly.


The Title
Gesso the tissue paper ~ and stamp with alpha-stamps.
Distress with ink.


You may feel the after-gesso-tissue like sort of fabric.


I have added the Pearlizing medium to the page to make the page shine.

Connection

I still continue to work on my home journal.

A page of 'connection' between each generation.







What a busy week for me !!
Almost 15 hours of each day contribute to my work assignment.
Another 4 days more for submission of the tender.
However, the pressure still not ended yet.
Another tender still waiting.
What a nightmare.
