CHAPTER 6: The Red Queen's FINE PRINT...

"The Red Queen shook her head, "You may call it 'nonsense' if you like," she said, "but I've heard nonsense, compared with which that would be as sensible as a dictionary!"

This week we're getting down to business and reading the "fine print" here in Wonderland.

We're also SO excited to be welcoming Digital Delights by Louby Loo as our sponsor this week! WOW! What a lucky group we are! Wendy from Digital Delights has not only graced the DT with some super fun Alice-inspired images to use, but is giving away a TEN DOLLAR GIFT CERTIFICATE to one lucky winner who will be randomly drawn from all the entries this week! THANKS Wendy!

This week's challenge is to create a card/project using some form of TEXT, such as text-printed pattern paper, old book pages, newspaper print, dictionary pages, etc. We just need to see SOME form of printed text on your card or project!

The images I chose to work with (thanks, Wendy!) are Teapot Pippin and the circular clock sentiment (notice the clock is backwards - what a great "Through the Looking Glass" touch!). Pippin immediately reminded me of Chapter VII of Alice In Wonderland (it's the Tea Party chapter, which ends with the Mad Hatter and March Hare trying to put a sleeping Dormouse into a tea pot), and I lucked out by finding an online version, that I reformatted to create my own text paper.

Now it's your turn! I can't wait to see you get TEXTY! :) To be entered in this week's prize drawing , link your creation to the Oh, Alice Blog by 10:00 PM CST on Friday, April 2nd! (Good grief, where did March go?!?!?!? *sigh* LOL) Please use keyword OAC6 if/when uploading to a public gallery.

Wonderful Weekend Hugs,
