Creepmas day 1

Here it is the 12 and 13 days of Creepmas, this is going to be a bit confusing, cause ther are 3 hops.  I tried to make it easy for all you hoppers by putting all 3  blog rolls in the side bar, if you get lost, go and check the side bar and you will be OK.

Starting with the 12 days of Creepmas by Smeared Ink you will find all about the rules and prize here. This hop will be every other day, next day is dec 3rd.

I made a tag using Smeared Inks North Pole digi, the back ground is embossed using a cuttle bug embossing folder, The digi is coloured with pencils and I added some glitter to give it a bit of an icy look.

 

Next is the 13 days of Creepmas by Rick St. Dennis MFA you can find all the details about freebies and prizes and rules at Rick's other blog Airless Chambers, this one is every day  for 13 days starting today.

 

This post is about Alice and 4 simple tags. Most of you know I'm a big Alice fan. What happened was that Rick asked me if I wanted a Creepmas Alice, of course I did, and within the hour I got an awesome Alice digi with a wrapped rabbit, and the message: apron, collar and cuffs white please, rest is up to you.

 

Now that was interesting, rest is up to me, never say that to me, cause why not give her a Christmas dress, so I made this:

 

Alice but not as we know her

 

 

 

When i finished the red dress, it just wasn't Alice anymore, I guess red isn't her colour.

Anyway I showed Rick and told about poor Alice doomed to wear blue for the rest of her life, he gave me some constructive criticism (make the wrapping paper look like wrapping paper!) and told me to have another go.

So I thought ok more extreme and scary after all it's Creepmas. and I coloured a curious Alice.

 

I liked it it was scary and different, and sent another pic to the boss,

again i got some constructive criticism: wrapping paper is better but never do the eyes the same colour as the dress.

Ok so another Alice then, I gave up a bit, all other coloured dresses didn't seem to work, that's why I got back to the good old Alice.

 

 

Sent a pic again to the Boss, and comment was:  now this is Alice..... and this wrapping paper looks like wrapping paper .

 

(so much for the rest is up to you, LOL). But i think it's true, the blue dress is what makes Alice,  Alice.

Still the eye thing was haunting throug my mind, what would curious Alice look like with a different colour eyes, so a few days later I decided to just try and see what happens.

 

This post is really just about the colouring, to see how the different colours would change the look of the same image, that's why I kept the tags very simple.

Question is, which Alice do you like the most, and what you think, can the poor girl wear another colour dress and still be Alice? 

 

Promise tomorrows post will be a lot shorter LOL

you can find the Creepmas Alice Digi here in Rick's Etsy

 

Enjoy the rest of the hop and please  leave all the Creepmas bloggers some nice comments, see you tomorrow
