Our Crafty Secrets Design Team challenge this month was to use one of the new
Postcard Kits that have been released. They are so much fun to play with! I chose the
Crafty Secrets Heartwarming Vintage Postcard Kit - Storybook because I fell in love immediately with the sweet images. I decided to do two post cards for today's challenge. The first one is Alice in Wonderland image. The image is so cute and I cut out an additional Alice and mounted her on dimensionals. I used a Copic Spica Glitter Pen in gold on the lines in Alice's dress and orange and gold pens in her hair. I put glass accents on the little jar she is holding and MS glass glitter on the little lines coming out of the jar. I had an Alice in Wonderland pin that had several cute dangling thingies that I took off and added to the bottom of the post card. I used gold colored SU wire to make the hanger and some beads from my stash.
Here is the back of the card. 
You can click on it for a closer look. I copied a page from the Alice in Wonderland book and printed it out on the computer. I mounted it an angle and then stamped a few of the stamps that are included in the post card kit. The little stamp in the upper right corner and the star at the bottom are both images that are mounted on chipboard also included in the kit. This would look so cute hanging on the wall in a little girl's room or even my craft room.
This is my second post card from the same kit. Another cutie but I didn't get a real good picture of it. This is a better picture of the image. 
I was a little late in getting my cards done and the lighting wasn't the best. That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it!! LOL I didn't do anything special with the image but made a cute little hangie thingie with beads from my stash, along with the star at the bottom. I mounted the word "Toyland" on the star. Actually the back of the star is just like the front of it.
Here is the back of the post card. Oops! I forgot to take a picture of the back! Rats!!! It's too late now. Anyway, I mounted a piece of Crafty Secrets paper and stamped a few stamps from the set and added a banner on it that said "Grimms' Fairy Tales" from an old book. I used a couple pieces of vintage seam binding for the hanger!

Just got this off the frame and got some pics before the sun went down. To say the thread blends well is a total understatement. I really had a hard time following it!! :) It is a variegated King Tut with shades of gold and brown and it seems like it was made for this quilt.
