Wonderland Tea Party Pop Up

Hi Crafty Friends,
You're INVITED to my Alice in Wonderland Tea Party! I used all the NEW C.C Designs Wonderland and Queen of Hearts Characters in this fun Pop Up Panel card. I colored the characters to match my tea papers rather than the traditional Alice in Wonderland colors. I hope you enjoy my twist of colors on this classic movie.

Q: What is your favorite Disney Movie?
A: Me? I love Fantasia and Aladdin

My Heroes

Hi Crafty Friends,
Who loves Super Heroes? EVERYONE! This is Super Hero Owen and his trusty pup Super Dog. I created a fun city scene for them to fight crime using Kat Scrappiness's Cityscape Slimline Die and some fun super hero paper. I added the My Hero sentiment to bring the focus onto the heroes of my card! Check out my FAVORITE Super Heroes below (my twin sister and her son & daughter)!

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: What would your super hero power be if you could pick?
A: Me? I would want to be able to freeze time

Q: What color would your mermaid fin be?
A: Me? Hot Pink
