It is fun to be challenged - it is years since I followed a sketch but the current Paperbabe Challenge is a sketch!!
I love all thing Alice so after thinking and playing with ideas I came up with this journal page - inspired in kind by a trip a couple of of years ago Alice Underground - which was a truly memorable day!!
The theatre company have twists in the tale and I decided to have the same in my page.
I used a page from an old book - the Dodo Race, mounted on a used brown envelope (recyling)
The lady image and background are digital - the image I coloured with copics love the quote and I think it is very apt for all of Alice!!The background I altered with acrylic paints / glaze / splatters.
The entwined circles / bubbles are a sizzix die cut - I used them to also highlight some of the book text.
Had a lot of fun making my page and enjoying the processes
Have a lovely week everyone

This is an amazing entry. I love how you wove your thought process with the visual imagery. I love how you used the "twists," too. Very clever. This is a wonderful Alice page and fits both the Go Green and Recycled at Try it on Tuesday.
This is an adorable journal page!!!
Beautiful your ideas!
Have a Happy March, Elke

So cool. I love how you have the words across her head. So much of everything negative in our lives is in our head. I love the girl and how you did her wearing contrasting green. Super well done and thoughtful.
Fabulous green page, Carol. Great quote too. Thank you for joining us at Art Journal Journey with this fun green page. Eileen xx
