golden wonderland

Hi there,

Remember my 'Curious Party' Alice In Wonderland explosion box?. It won the Altered Alice Chapter 20 Challenge! :). I'm still not done with Alice yet, she is so mysteriously growing on me!. So last night, I thought I prepped my journal pages with molding paste stencil for another Alice project.

Here is the completed pages;

Inspired with glitter & gold post, I painted Wonderland, gold!!. I can't help myself but to ink the 'gates' in gold. Love running my fingers on them :). I took a twist on Alice In Wonderland again, making it almost an eerie haunted Wonderland.

Although, I must have some red roses and hearts;

A close up of the gates;

To add some drama I stamped a skeleton key, daring Alice to enter Wonderland!. Add of course some gauze-web and spooky butterfly :). [Maybe I should carve myself a bat stamp?]. 

I hope you had fun :). Have a great weekend!.

Hugs.

I chose the former

Hello,

I'm making journal pages with lots of glitter & gold today. Take a peek on the glitter & gold inspiration posted last week :). When I saw that pumpkin, I knew I had to use my hand-carved leaf stamp & the champagne acrylic paint in my journal. Here's what I made;

I'm still thinking about the rainbow I saw last week. And I found just the perfect quote for it. However, no idea who wrote it. [Can  you help?, so I could give a proper credit]. I definitely chose the former. Enjoy the beauty. Don't think I'll be out shoveling anytime soon :).

I first glued down TYPO tissue papers on blank pages. Applied some champagne-colored acrylic paint with a rubber brayer. When dried, stamped with white acrylic ink and pearl gold poster color. Dripped some white ink and stamped circles with a bottle lid. Lastly, added a few washi tapes, DYMO words and foam dots.

Multi-layers of paint & ink. The white intricate patterns is from hand-carved stamp, dabbed with white acrylic ink. I wrote the quote with a small brush, dipped in black india ink.

With all the layering, my pages are still TOO shiny!. 

LOL. I'll do better next.

I like to extend love & caring thoughts to anyone affected by Sandy. May you stay in comfort and warmth. 

Hugs.
