Halloween in Wonderland

When I saw the new Graphic 45 Halloween in Wonderland papers, I knew they would be lots of fun to combine with the Wonderland Collage images from Artistic Outpost.  I used Laura's Sketch from 2 Sketches 4 You for my layout.

I decided to dress my White Queen in her own Halloween Costume by paper piecing her robe with the heart design paper from the collection.  I used a another paper for my background & cut the little rabbit from another paper design.

I also paper pieced Alice's dress & socks.  My original intention was to paper piece the apron with coordinating ivory paper, but after I smudged my attempt at making a blue pocket, I ended up coloring the entire apron with blue glaze pen & adding white for my pocket.  The crown is paper pieced with gold metallic paper and the rest of the colors were added using glitter pens and Prismacolor pencils.

This card also works for the Passionate for Pattern Challenge (to use at least three different patterned papers in your design … paper piecing is one of the funnest ways to use up scraps and combine papers … for me, it's sort of like grown-up paper dolls) at SCS as part of this month's Dare to Get Dirty Challenges … so fun to get to play along with those fabulous designers.
