Mad Hatter Birthday Hat by Dianna

Hi everyone and a happy 3rd Birthday to Gina's Designs!  Gina helped make this idea a reality - thank you, Gina! She cut this hat for me and was very supportive when I took over her craft room and decoupaged everything in sight. 
The paper is actually book pages from Alice in Wonderland that was lavishly distressed with ink.  I did use color pencils on some of the pages.  I used Beacon's Fast Finish Decoupage and it was a pleasure to work with (Warning! This stuff is like water so a little easier to work with and it does dry fast).  The above picture is a side shot but I wanted it to be the first picture.  I used a blown up picture of the mad hatter and placed one of Gina's Designs tea cups in front of the mad hatter.  I used Sparkling H20's on Gina's feathers and some of the left over rosette from the hat band.  I added the cards to celebrate Gina's Designs 3rd Birthday!
This picture is actually the front of the hat.  I used Gina's Designs String Alongs - Alice and applied Sparkling H20's.  The pocket watch was cut from a String Alongs and I included a metal watch face.  The white rabbit is a stamp from Deep Red colored with Copic Markers.  The blue band is a rosette die that was cut from blue paper.
The caterpillar was cut out from a Alice in Wonderland page and popped up on one of Gina's mushrooms. Sparking H20's was used on the mushrooms to give them some depth.  This Alice is a stamp from Saturated Canary and colored with Copic Markers.  
 
There was a lot going on here with all of the colored pages so I used a hat from Gina's Alice String Alongs to brake it up a little. 
This is the top of the hat, I just had to include the Cheshire Cat :)

Thank you for looking!

Mardi Gras Layout by Kathi and some ATC's by Melissa

Today we have two projects to share.  First up is Kathi with an inventive way to use the chipboard masks that you have seen decorated this month by all of the Design Team members in celebration of Mardi Gras.

Hi everyone, Kathi here, thanks for joining me today,  I have created  a 12 X 12 layout using one of the new masquerade masks  from Gina's store..  The masks come in several shapes and are ready to decorate.



I added two of the smaller masks as photo mats. I added the paper to the mask and the ran it through the big shot with an embossing folder.  I sanded the raised area's and used Lindy's Stamp Gang spray on the lace. I added feathers beads & flowers to the left top of the mask, and I shaped the mask raising the nose area. I added a very thin paper flower laser cuts (from Korea) A gift from my mother-in-law 30 years ago. 


I hope you liked my project today, thanks for stopping by and don't forget to visit Gina's Store.

Hi everyone, Melissa here.  One reason I find the chipboard such a pleasure to work with is their versatility. I can change their original theme to fit which ever one I want.
