Cinema Saturday Challenge- Alice in Wonderland

Hellooooooo friends!
I'm back to share my project for this week's Cinema Saturday Creative Challenge for the film:
The challenge requirement is to create something out of the box. Just my kind of challenge!

First, let me say that no, I have not seen the new Alice. Why? well, because The Queen of Hearts (the uber fab Helena Bonham Carter) looks frightening! :{ ---> too much like a clown :( Yuck! I don't like clowns! and my boyfriend Johnny, (emphasis on the --->MY<---) yes, MY boyfriend Johnny, doesn't look his swooniness either. That Tim Burton is such a hater. I mean, have you noticed how he has to make MY Johhny look bad in all of his films? Edward Scissorhands... check. Sweeney Todd... check. This movie... super check! See a pattern here??? Well, I can't say I blame Tim Burton. I mean look at him:

now look at MY Johnny:
Oh swooon! I think it's case closed ;) Hee! Hee!
OK, sorry. But when MY Johnny is involved, I kinda lose my head a bit!

Anyhoo, here's my project:
It's a teacup for the Tea Party! It is 2 separate pieces: the cup & saucer.
I used the colors of the Queen of Heart's dress (which is so choice! The one thing I did like from the new Alice) --- red, black, & gold. I stamped hearts to embellish & added some heart punches popped with dimensionals. I used a gold Krylon marker around the edges.
Here are a couple more peeks:
a little closer peek at the deets of the tea cup.

Inside the tea cup. Oopsie! I drank all the tea. ;) I inked inside the cup for shading.

I won't lie & tell you it was easy-peasy to make, but it wasn't super hard either. I really like the way it came out so it was worth the effort. It is pretty much true to size as well. It would make a great decoration or invitation for a tea party of your own. I bought this template from Waltzing Mouse Stamps in case you're interested.

Thanks so much for peeking today! Tomorrow is my last day of school- YAAAAAAY! I'm sooooo ready for summer vacation!
Gotta Go!

  1. Love it!! Alice in Wonderland just happens to be my all time favorite movie (the original animated Disney version that is) I did run out and buy this on as soon as it was released (cuz I'm an Alice collector) but I still haven't watched it.
    While I'm openly sharing move loves, Pirates of the Carribean (1,2 or 3) are my favorite Johhny movies.

  8. This is beautiful. Love the detail on the cup, especially the gold rim. I didn't see the movie, the whole thing looked a bit creepy to me, LOL! Lots of people loved it though.

  10. WOW!! What a great project!!! I have to say that I feel the same way about Johnny Depp (in being "MY" Johnny!! :))) LOL!) But somehow - however Tim Burton dresses him up - he always looks incredibly hot! I told my DH that I think its slightly crazy that I thought the Mad Hatter was kinda HOT!!!! LOL! - He just gave me look like..."now, who did I marry again!" Your project is sooo creative and simply FANTASTIC!!!!
    You simply ROCK Karli!
    Big hugs,
    Sankari :)
