It's Oh, Alice! Challenge Time!

CHAPTER 3: Painting the Roses Red "Would you tell me please," said Alice a little timidly, "Why are you painting those roses?" Five and Seven said nothing, but looked at Two. Two began in a low voice, "Why the fact is, you see, Miss, this here ought to have been a Red rose tree, and we put a white one in by mistake"... Welcome back! We're painting the Roses RED...and blue...and purple....and hey, we're painting our NAILS too! Check out this AWESOMELY ALICE inspiration picture featuring this SUPER cool new O.P.I. Polish collection, "Wonderland". Before we get started, the Oh,Alice! Blog has a SPECIAL Tea Party Guest joining us for the month of March! Please welcome ERIN LEVEILLE as our March Tea Party Guest! Erin BLEW US AWAY with this card she submitted for the 1st Oh, Alice challenge and we are thrilled to have her at our Mad Tea party this month :) WELCOME ERIN! What's more? We have a FABULOUS sponsor for this challenge-KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS! It just so happens that Kim is releasing some AWESOME Tea Party images this month and was gracious enough to donate a PRIZE pack of the new rubber stamp collection featuring these awesome new images! The DT is THRILLED to have been able to work with them, too! WOW! Aren't they awesome? For my card today, I used Kraftin Kimmie's Giselle. She is colored with Copics and I framed her with a piece of cardstock cut out with a Spellbinders Labels 4 die to mimic the keyholes in the picture above. Isn't she just adorable?! The layout is from this week's Mercy's Tuesday Sketch Challenge #63. Just love her sketches! I found some sparkly ribbon in my stash for the ribbon/bow and added a new Prima flower to the top. The paper is Wisteria Bazzil and Basic Grey Euphoria DP.
