Chapter 9: Somewhere in the Sunny, Sketchy, Afternoon...

Alice in Wonderland, how do you get to Wonderland?
Over the hill or underland, or just behind the tree?
When clouds go rolling by, they roll away and leave the sky.
Where is the land beyond the eye, that people can not see, where can it be? Where do stars go, where is the crescent moon?
They must be somewhere in the sunny afternoon.
Alice in Wonderland, where is the path to Wonderland?
Over the hill or here or there, I wonder where.

For this week's challenge, I wanted to really work with the excerpt. I chose these papers for their "sketchy" vibe, vivid yet organic colors, and the symbolism of the butterflies. And I just love this Sugar Nellie image that features a travelling gal wearing a MAD little hat! Combined, I hope these elements reflect my love of dreams (I've always been blessed with such vivid and colorful dreams) and the concept of dreams as a journey within ourselves, within our own minds. I always try to explain to people that I have a whole other world inside my head, and every time I go to sleep, I know a new adventure is about to begin. No wonder I love the Alice story so much. ;)

We hope you'll join us this week down the Rabbit Hole for this fun sketch, designed by DT member Tasha. :
