Colouring Pink

Good morning everyone. It is my Mad for Markers day today. This month at M4M we have a Colouring Pink challenge. I thought I would print out a Spesch Stamps stamp- The White Queen as she has a lovely dress. I made her very pink - one of my favourite colours.

I made this card with the sketch from Oh, Alice! challenge. It is a fabulous sketch. Hope you get some inspiration from my card.

Copics used:

Skin: E000, 00, 21

hair: E50, 51, 53

Dress: R000, 00, 11, 20, 22

Other: YR21, R22, R000.

Breaking all the rules

"At this moment the King, who had been for some time busily writing in his note-book, cackled out `Silence!' and read out from his book, `Rule Forty-two. ALL PERSONS MORE THAN A MILE HIGH TO LEAVE THE COURT.'

Everybody looked at Alice.

`I'M not a mile high,' said Alice.

`You are,' said the King.

`Nearly two miles high,' added the Queen.

`Well, I shan't go, at any rate,' said Alice: `besides, that's not a regular rule: you invented it just now.'

`It's the oldest rule in the book,' said the King.

`Then it ought to be Number One,' said Alice. "

Good afternoon everyone. How are we all today...??? Good I hope.

What is all that about I hear you ask. Well it is Saturday and that means it is Oh, Alice! time. The fabulous thing is that Spesch Stamps are sponsoring this challenge so would love for you to play along.

The challenge deets:

We start with this sketch by Sammi,

The catch? You must RE-CREATE this sketch somehow. Switch out a panel or two, flip on its side, upside down, etc. There are no rules except to break them, meaning you can't follow the sketch exactly! Makes no sense right? GOOD. :)

I decided to flip it upside down. I used Alice, Cheshire cat, The White Rabbit and The Hatter for this card. I actually coloured in the images before I chose some DP and then found I didn't have any matching DP so I made my own. I actually won some Hero Arts Stamps when I won a challenge at Stamp with Fun so they were perfect. I heat embossed the stamped images with clear embossing powder.
The prize that Spesch Stamps is offering is a $10 Gift voucher in store.
Here is a close up of the bottom of the card.

My big news and a sneek peek

Have any of you guessed yet....???? I know some of you already know - as I have told you and some of you have hinted. That's right I am opening my own Digital stamp store. At this stage it will be called 'Spesch Stamps' but I don't know about it. What do you all think....??? I was thinking more along the lines of 'Speschly for You'. Let me know. My hubby came up with the first one. Hahaha. I have been working with some very talented ladies to get some designs done. I have an extra special designer who whipped this one up in an afternoon - how spesch is she LOL. She is a doll and I can't wait to introduce her to you all. Of course I will be putting my own designs on my site (which I have to get up and running).

Before I forget - I have a couple of super talented DT members already. You should see what they have come up with. I will also introduce them to you very soon. Very excited about that. Oh and "Yes" I will be doing a DT call - soon. Very soon. LOL.

So what do you think of Alice....??? She is super cute right....!!!!!! I couldn't wait to use her on the Oh, Alice...!!!!! challenge this week, with a fab sketch. Oops sorry forgot to put up but you can check it out yourself. If you want this gorgeous stamp - just email me your paypal details and I will send an invoice.

What do you think of the half circle...???? I did that myself. Woo hoo. I love tooting my own horn. Oh and Alice is just wonderful to colour too. She is $3US.

Oh, Alice!

Good morning everyone. Sorry I have been MIA lately but I have been busy doing stuff and I have a bad case of RSI so trying to keep off the computer as much as possible. I am sure you will understand. So if I don't come and comment on your lovely creations that is why.

Okay - Alice Gets Glam on the Oh, Alice! challenge blog. You have to take inspiration from the makeup set on the side. I used a digi stamp from Sassy Studio Designs - I love the Alice digital stamp. I left it plain as my MOJO was not there when I created this card. LOL. Hope you like anyway.
