Alice is late and so am I to Miss CarlaÂ’s terrific Tickle a Teapotter teaparty. I apologise for my tardiness and for making an almost identical card to SabrinaÂ’s wonderful patchwork tickle last December. Unfortunately time is not on my side this week, I hope it is ok to use this stash background and patchwork house.
When I made the card for Sabrina’s challenge, I made an A4 background and then cut it into panels. The first card was a 5 x 7”card, this one is 4.25 x 8”, there was a narrow strip left over so I added that to the inside of this card.
The background is RobinÂ’s great ironing spray technique with BrushoÂ’s. Distress inks have also been added here and there. The patchwork house is just a digi image printed onto photocopy paper, coloured with Priscmacolour pencils, alcohol markers and distress crayons.
Alice and her rabbit were fussy cut from a Graphic45 pad. I coloured the Alice image using distress crayons and pencils. The rabbit was already coloured. Looking at the photo, I forgot to cut the broom head properly, IÂ’ll have to fix that.
Thanks so much for looking. I hope you are having a happy, inky week.

Wow! What a magical, fabulous, amazing card this is Susie. I am totally in awe of what is in your stash my friend. This quilted house with Alice and her rabbit are so charming and lovely and complement this scene perfectly. This card is definitely worth the wait my friend. I love everything about it!

So....Alice has come to Susieland!!! She and the White Rabbit (at least he was white in the books I read) must have fallen down the wrong hole. He's looking a little less white because of the hole dirt, I imagine. But, boy, did they come to the right place! She's gazing about checking out all the Awesomeness. (The rabbit brings to mind my DH standing there looking at his watch) I know all about Late. I'm thinkin' the rabbit may have to go on by himself. Looks to me like Alice is planning on staying. I've found that when a woman, or in this case a girl, stands like that with her arms crossed, she has her mind made up and there isn't much chance she's going to change it. Alice has probably already made plans to find a nice apartment or one of these Beautiful houses. Being that these buildings don't appear to grow or shrink is a Bonus. By the way, Sassy Alana said she's so sorry, but she isn't interested in your Delightful December house at this time. You might want to mention it to Alice. Maybe for the right price........you never know. It may be a huge selling point for the rest of the homes in the area having a celebrity living in the neighborhood. I'm just sayin'.
Such a Marvelous Explosion of Color!!! And your background is definitely Awe Inspiring! Beautiful!!!!! Have a Fascinating month of March, Susie!

Oh, Susie, there's another of your beautifully colored and magical houses!! The background you created is absolutely terrific, and Alice is wearing a gorgeous dress that matches her surroundings. I love slipping away into your awesome scenes, gazing for a time, and enjoying the scenery!! The recipient of this card will be blessed by a masterpiece from the one and only Susie! Outstanding work, my friend!! Hugs!
