Julie has selected Shelly (yo sam) as this week's Featured Stamper. I am shocked she hasn't been the FS before - she has such a fun gallery and is the sweetest!
I love the Wizzard of Oz but don't have any stamps from that story/movie. I do happen to have two Alice stamps that a VERY SWEET SCS friend sent to me as a retirement gift this week. So I substituted Alice for Oz and fussy cut the rabbit instead of having him on a panel. I used dsp for the base panel like Shelly did, but outlined mine in Stickles. I sketched and painted the mushroom and grass.
I colored everything up with watercolors and a touch of Stickles. The sentiment is computer generated. I am always late on birthdays it seems so I needed some belated birthday cards in my stash. The actual face on this image has no mouth and smaller eyes. I messed up one eye and had a little mishap in the mouth area sooooo I improvised a little.
Thanks for the inspiration, Shelly, and thanks for all your sweet cards and encouragement you give to us all and to MMTPT recipients. Enjoy your week as the Featured Stamping Queen.

Love the way you created this very “Alice” scene. As a kid I didn’t like Alice in Wonderland one little bit. You are helping me get over my dislike with this cute card.

Wonderful fun in Wonderland! I love how you translated her layout with your fussy cut rabbit. It looks fabulous. And that big mushroom looks so Wonderland to me. Your improvised clock face with the little hearts is equally wonderful. I think any of your friends would be happy for you to be late in wishing them a happy birthday if they got this gem. Love how you used those stamps. Super card, my friend. Hugs.

I am always on the belated side of birthdays as well. I think Alice makes a perfect belated card!! Your water coloring is wonderful.
