The Hobonichi Challenge for April is
an Alice in Wonderland theme. Above,
white roses painted red, and the White Rabbit.
Some mail art postcards
and a bunny for Easter on an envelope.
A very three dimensional Easter card, hand
delivered to the In-Laws. Haven't been to visit
my own parents yet as they are isolating. Hoping
the weather will warm up soon so we can go
over and sit in lawn chairs in the yard to
visit with them!
There are so many cute memes on the
internet, and I just have to steal one
sometimes. 'Steal like an artist' as they say.
Sketched daffodils from my yard for a
card to send.
I really adore the original illustrations for Alice
in Wonderland done by Sir John Tenniel. But
of course Disney's versions are pretty amazing too!
Did you spot the coffee cups that I include on my
pages? They are my contribution to 'T for Tuesday'
over at Altered Book Lover's blog. It's always
nice to share tea, coffee, and some conversation
with good friends!
Above, a few text pages that I've watercolored and
drawn on. I will probably tear them up and
use for collage. What creative projects
have you been working on?

Your planner is always a delight to look at and the bunny on the envelope is so adorable. The I can't clean page made me laugh. Isn't that the truth? 😺 Take care and Happy T Day
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pages and I'm loving seeing your Alice in Wonderland drawings, they look amazing 😁. The little bunny on the envelope and bird in the teacup stole my heart though - beautiful! Wishing you a Happy T Day! Stay safe and well! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteHi, I loved seeing all of your art!
ReplyDeleteI am learning how to paint-something new to me
Happy T wishes hugs Kathy
Nice to see you back for T Dianne. I enjoyed all the art, and I especially liked your quote about how you find all those fun supplies while cleaning. That happens to me, as well as many folks, I am sure. But good to see it in writing. Hope you are staying healthy. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteI'm especially taken by your mail art postcards :) I love the colors and design. Happy T Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteoh my Dianne, what's not to love here....your drawings are always captivating, and I love your postcards and water colored text pages! Good to see you for T Day!!
ReplyDeleteWell Dianne, I love the rabbit after Tenniel. I've never seen the ones by Disney, I guess. I've really missed your drawings, colorings, and sketches. I love reading about your daily life and even the coffee cups and breakfast. Beautiful art and great coffee images for T this Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm going to play at ICAD again this year. I cut 3 X 5 cards from used file folders. I swear those folders multiply while I sleep. I haven't purchased index cards in two years. I hope you find a way to join. You don't really NEED index cards to play, at least in my opinion.
Beautiful art Dianne!
ReplyDeleteHappy T-Day!

I love your creativity! so clever and sweet ~ Blessings to you
ReplyDeleteYou always have the most interesting pages in your journal. Love the bunny art on the envelope and all the other artwork, too. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing you lovely journals with so much to look at. I blow up the image and feast my eyes on all the little treasures you have drawn. I spotted all the little cups and mugs, perfect for T-Day.
ReplyDeleteHappy T-Day,
Stay safe, stay healthy, stay home,
Hugs,

I love the Alice in Wonderland stuff too, and the daffodils are there to brighten up my day.
I know where you are coming from when you say it is so difficult to clean and tidy the craft room. I have the same problem that I keep finding things.
Being a lover of postcards, of course I loved the little rabbit on the card. Precious!
Your artwork is gorgeous!!! I love your art journal pages, but everything you've done is fantastic. Happy belated T-Day!

What a feast for the eyes, Dianne. I'm always inspired by your journal pages. The postcards, 3D card and cheery collage papers are lovely. I love the page about cleaning your craft room! It's like Christmas every time I do it. Awww ... the cute birdie in the cup made my heart skip a beat.
ReplyDeleteStay safe and stay well.
Happy T-Day! Eileen xx
Oh, thank you so much for a time warp to the last movie my Brother and I saw with our Mum, Alice in Wonderland...
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done! Our surname translated is Emperor, so the last work of yours really made it as my fav. Thank you. I miss her.... That darn cancer takes so many people away, we need Alice to dream a bit!
Your pages are absolutely wonderful. You are creating lots of lovely art while we are in lock down! Best keep busy I say! I love the colouring on the book paper especially and the brightness in your pages and mail art are a perfect sight for these terrible times! Belated Happy T day! Chrisx
ReplyDeleteI realize I didn't visit you last week. Again, I enjoyed enlarging and reading every detail that you journaled. Reading everything that you have written has made me wish that I had started journaling this experience. I just can't get into it right now though. So glad that you have shared your pages.
