This is a project I've been working on for months on and off. I had to order lots of bits and pieces and do a huge amount of painting and colouring so that is why it has been in the planning for a while! If anyone wants to know where any of it came from please comment on the post!
It was made for a special friend who loves Disney and as she had a Mad Hatters Tea Party for her 18th thought this was quite apt for a 21st pressie!
I started off with a Tim Holtz Idea-ology book...
and ended up with this...
I found an Alice book falling apart at a May Day Fete and as it was so tatty and only 50p I didn't feel so bad ripping it up!
Sneak peak of inside...
The distressed paint was really easy to do thanks to a tip by Ali Reeve. I painted the whole thing with red acrylic paint then with a scourer dragged some black acrylic paint over the top. It was so quick and easy! I was going to cover so you would have only seen the edges but it turned out so good I wanted it to be seen.
The Inside...
And yes, she did cry when she opened this. Made all the hours worth while!
Happy 21st Birthday Chloe
