Alice In Wonderland. . .
The Make a Moo or Two theme for the week is "Alice In Wonderland", and I truly must thank Mandy, who is this week's guest hostess, for solving a Christmas present dilemma! My DD LOVES all things Alice, and the two moos that I made for this week's challenge are sitting back to back, encased in glass slides and a brass frame, with a long black silk ribbon tie, ready to be wrapped for her and put under the tree!
I make so many thing for other people, that when it comes to my family, it must be something truly special. I think this is it!! Now, I'll need to keep Amy from reading my blog for a couple of days, so Shhhhhhhhhh.....don't tell!
Both images were scanned, cropped, cut, colored and collaged onto black linen cardstock. The "r-e-a-c-h" is computer generated and the "Tea" was done with a Sakura gelly roll pen.
And on another subject, you will all want to take a look at Lani's blog...she's offering some very special blog candy! The person who wins the draw will get a space in two of her online art courses! A fabulous prize, that I really hope to win!!! Good luck to you, too, but I am SO keeping my fingers crossed for me......
......Have a great day, Everyone!
Both are fabulous. Love them.

Hi Barbara, yes your Moo´s make a terrific present. What a beautiful way to create a gift, I think she will be very happy when she gets it from you.
We both used the same Alice stamp and what a world of diverence in those two creations.
My Alice is decorating the Christmas tree and your Alice is reaching for that helping hand.
You know when I see you Alice I´m getting a warm feeling in my heart, because she reminds me of my daughter who wanted to hold hands al lot when she was small.
She now is thirteen and holding hands is not cool any more, especialy if somebody is watching.

Barbara - what a treat! The moos must look divine presented like that - are they to wear as a pendant? Sounds beautiful.
I agree with you - family are a tough call, aren't they? You have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year, my friend. xoxoxo

I like what you have done here, what a nice present. I love the stamps you used, at least I think they are stamps.
