Hello lovely people and welcome to my blog.
So this is the new Kit for February 2022 and I must say.. When I got it and popped it all together I thought "What the heck am I going to do with this" lol
Once I decided on my theme, it was REALLY great fun to make! So much fun that I actually forgot to take photos during the process and it didn't leave my craft room until 3am lol
SO..... MY THEME...... ALICE IN WONDERLAND!
Step 1**** MOST IMPORTANT**** Raid your children's Sylvanian Family collection for items needed for a mad hatters tea party! 😂 They are the perfect size for this project and look great too! Failing that, I'm sure little elements could be made with Fimo clay or you can use the stampieria die cuts.
I started with my favourite good old fashioned Black Gesso...(got to love this stuff lol)
For the top I used a Tim Holts stencil. I really wanted a black and white checked paper but do you think I could find one? Nope! So if any of you lovely people know of anywhere I can get some please comment below 
I also added some moss that I had in my stash which looks very effective.
I also added some moss that I had in my stash which looks very effective.The Alice papers are by Stampieria and are just absolutely lovely. It kills me having to cut them up lol. I distressed the edges and added some watered down paint to age the colour of the paper.
I also like to add some chiffon to the backs of papers. burnt with a heat gun or a naked flame,
this technique was used for the sides too where I added a white rabbit charm too.
Inside this little cubby I have used the Stamperia Alice in Wonderland Papers and the packet of Die cuts. I distressed the edges with Tim Holtz Vintage Photo distress ink. Added some twine tot he pocket watch and some lighter coloured moss I had in my stash. and finished off with a key.
In the above cubby I again used the Stamperior Papers for the base. I 3D embossed the brick wall and added the die cuts playing cards and some more green moss. I also added a little jar with green glitter which looks very cute.
In the above phot you can see the burnt chiffon more clearly. I love this rustic effect. The table I stole again from my childrens toy collection (I'm sure they wont miss it lol)
I used gilding waxes to give it some texture. The tea pots are from the pack of die cuts too. And some more moss!
The above pics I used some more of the beautiful Alice papers and the chess pieces are from the die cuts and the metal pieces from my stash.
This has been a great project to work on and I cant wait to make another one!
I hope you have enjoyed my blog!
