As per usual I started by making a fabric/paper collage using a very strange mix of ingredients. Some vintage music and text but mainly napkins formed the backbone. Among the napkins I used were ones with parasols, vintage menu with knves and spones, flowers and finally one featuring cupcakes. All somehow said Alice in Wonderland to me and I was really pleased with how the collage looked when I had finished. The background was made with a lime green velvet which was heavily machine quilted to which I stitched the collage with satin stitching. It did not need a lot more but I found some die-cut Alice images (available from Alphastamps) and to the first page I added a small looking Alice, looking at the Cheshire cat. Her size also looks minute compared to the spoon, and I added the text: Call Alice When she was just small.
I liked the collage for the facing page even better, with the music, mouse, rabbit and flower images and to this I added the text: Remember what the dormouse said.
I always knew I would love working on Judy's album and indeed I had great fun with these pages!

I adore the lime green velvet, Frieda! Absolutely stunning work you have done here for Judy's pages.
Also a surprise!! I have given you an award : )) Now don't worry, you don't have to do anything (unless you fancy to). I simply could not help but give you this award after it was given to me. It's here! --
