Alice in Wonderland Toppers

"The time has come," the walrus said, "to talk of many things: Of shoes and ships - and sealing wax - of cabbages and kings."

~ Lewis Carroll

For this swap, you are invited to create a set of Alice in Wonderland cupcake toppers consisting of one dozen toppers.

The toppers can be of your own original design or using existing images you've found in storybooks or online, just as long as you credit any sources you might have used. Images that you print at home MUST be crisp and bright, no fuzzy or dull copies, please.

The only Alice artwork that may not be used are Disney images, cartoon or live action. There should be plenty of others you can find!

Toppers must:

• be made of cardstock, clay, fabric, or any other sturdy material.
• be neatly made and of good quality
• have no excessive visible glue or tape
• include backing on the other side of the toothpick/pick/etc.
• be well-packaged so everything arrives in one piece. Remember, toothpicks can be fragile!

Feel free to embellish if you wish, though please note that it's probably best to stay away from anything that might flake off easily, since these are meant to be used with edibles.

This should be a quick and inexpensive craft using materials you probably have around your home. If you need help on making toppers, check out this easy tutorial.

You can also see some of the toppers from our previous Swap-Bot swaps in our Flickr group if you need some inspiration. (And those of you who haven't joined yet or uploaded your own photos...please do!)

You will have 4 weeks to make and send your toppers, and you'll receive a lovely set of Alice toppers in return.
