`Here are the Red King and the Red Queen,' Alice said (in a whisper, for fear of frightening them), `and there are the White King and the White Queen sitting on the edge of the shovel -- and here are two castles walking arm in arm..."
--Ch. 1: Through the Looking Glass
The challenge this week is again the brainchild of DT member Lynne-to use some aspect of the game of chess! You might want to use a checkerboard pattern, or feature a King, Queen, Knight or Castle (Rook), or some other aspect of the game we haven't thought of - we just need to be able to clearly see CHESS in your creation!
We are THRILLED to announce that there's a prize this week, too! Thanks to our generous sponsor, PAPER MANIAC, this week, they are giving away a set of Artistic Outpost Alice in Wonderland mini-stamps AND a sheet of E.A.D. Designs Stickerz! How awesome is that?
Here's my inspiration for this week ...
The checkerboard floor comes from Fune-stock over on Deviant Art... isn't it AWESOME! THANKS Trace for telling me to use it!! :D
The Alice image is one that I drew up... having looked at lots of different Alice images on the web I took inspiration from a number of them and drew up this little cutie! I hope you like her!
POP on over to Oh, Alice to see all the rest of the amazing DT creations!!
Checkmate! Have YOU met your match? You have until FRIDAY, October 29th to enter your creation and throw your hat (or should I say, crown?) in the ring for this awesome PAPER MANIAC prize this week! The winner will be announced with the next challenge!!
See you soon!
Such a cute card, Love it! *hugz*
ReplyDeleteI love this! TOTAL genius w/ that quote and the board floor that Alice is sitting on. SO creative and your coloring is just beautiful, Sammi girl! xo
ReplyDeleteNow when I first looked at this before reading about it I thought to myself 'I dont recognise that stamp, I reckon Sammi has drawn her!' honest then I read on and hey presto yep you've drawn her. Great to see your amazing drawing talent on your cards again! Hope you are having a great weekend. xx
