BLOG HOP Down the Yellow Brick Road!

WooHoo it's Blog Hop Time! That means lots of fabulous creations using the new Wizard of Oz set and if you leave a comment on each Blog you have that many chances to win some FREE rubber!


My first card is the whole gang in OZ, well some of them! I coloured the image with copics, then sponged in colour in the background. What do you think of the Emerald City, it's so sparkly in real life! I used the MS city scape edge punch to make it.


The sentiment is a Limited Edition stamp that won't be sold, but every Design Team member is giving one away to one lucky poster!


Recipe
Stamps: Yellow Brick Road, Limited Edition sentiment, SU itty bitty bgs
Paper: cameo coral, black, white, DCWV summer glitter stack
Ink: memento tuxedo black, cameo coral, certainly celery, bashful blue
Accessories: copics, MS city scape edge punch, sponges, EK small scallop circle (mask for clouds), square punch, dimensionals

I love this one, it took forever to colour in the background, but it was worth it! I stamped the Flying Monkey on white and coloured them in...my hand was cramping! I stamped the Bad Witch twice. Then coloured her with copics, cute the head out from one & popped it up.


The sentiment is from the new Oz words #1, it has 14 sentiments! I cut this one in half, matted it and popped it up!


Not much to this card, just time! lol

And this is Dorothy, she's in a better mood today, she's back to her sweet self!


I coloured the image with copics. You probably can't see in the photo, but Toto is popped up. I love pop dots! Dorothy's dress is dp from DCWV Nana's Nursery boys pkg. Her shoes are covered in xmas red stickles.


The white is embossed with the heart EF and the corner treatments are die cuts from spellbinders In Spades pendant set. The brads were already covered with red sparkles, how perfect!


The sentiment is from the new set Oz Words #1.
