Alice didn’t dare to argue the point, but went on: `– and I thought I’d try and find my way to the top of that hill — ‘ `When you say “hill,”‘ the Queen interrupted, `I could show you hills, in comparison with which you’d call that a valley.’ `No, I shouldn’t,’ said Alice, surprised into contradicting her at last: `a hill can’t be a valley, you know. That would be nonsense — ‘ The Red Queen shook her head, `You may call it “nonsense” if you like,’ she said, ` but I’ve heard nonsense, compared with which that would be as sensible as a dictionary!’ — Chapter 2, Through The Looking Glass and What Alice Found There
Using text as pattern is a trend right now that I really love. Your challenge is to use text as nonsense – not to read but as pattern on your project! Of course you can still have words or sentiments, but we also need to see text used in a non-reading way. I have a stack of old books and dictionaries that I use for this purpose.
Our sponsor is Stamp Attack, a British company that is well known (among other things) for their fantastic Alice stamp plates which have sold to customers all over the world. In fact, Helena Bonham Carter, the actress who played the Red Queen in the Tim Burton Alice movie, purchased sets of Alice stamps from Stamp Attack, which were then delivered to the studio! Enabler alert: Stamp Attack offers speedy worldwide shipping for only £1 on unmounted stamp orders, so go on and check out their beautiful stamps!
The winner will receive a Stamp Attack gift certificate for £13.50, which is equivalent to one of the stamp plates that the design team will be using!
You have until Friday, September 23 to enter your creation and the winner and honorable mentions will be announced on the last Sunday of the month, September 25. All kinds of projects are welcome, they do not have to be “altered art” and as always, entries that feature some aspect of Wonderland are given two chances instead of one in the random prize drawing. You may enter multiple times as long as each project is on a separate post.
We are also saying goodbye to our current crop of guest designers, so please leave them some special love this month as their projects have been FABULOUS! Thanks so much ladies, you have added so much to The Altered Alice! And stay tuned, there will be some special design team announcements next month too!

Hier ist wieder ein File Folder von mir. Der erste, den ich mit Graffiti Spray gesprüht habe. Das tolle dabei ist, dass die Farben nicht so verlaufen. Danke fürs schauen.

Meine Mama hatte mir im letzten Jahr diesen klasse Workshop mit dem Namen: Mixed Media Mayhem bei Roben Marie Smith gekauft. Ich habe ihn mir nun mehrere Male angesehen und bin immer wieder begeistert, wie Roben Marie arbeitet. Nun möchte ich gern meinen ersten File Folder zeigen. Ist nur mit der rechten Hand gemacht, aber zum matschen reicht ja auch eine Hand. Es macht Spaß und das Ergebnis gefällt mir selber sehr gut. Es werden noch mehrere File Folder folgen, denn es wird am Ende ein ganzes Album. Ich hoffe er gefällt Euch und danke fürs vorbeischauen.
My lovely mom bought me last year this workshop with the class name: Mixed Media Mayhem from Roben Marie Smith. I’ve now seen him several times and am always amazed at how Roben Marie works. Now I would like to show my first file folder. Is made only with your right hand, but enough to smash a hand, too. It’s fun and like the result myself very well. It will be followed by several file folders, because it will end up a whole album. I hope you like it and thanks for looking.
