This is my card for Polly's super-fun There's No Place Like Home Tickle a Teapotter challenge.
I used to have some Wizard of Oz stickers, but I FreeCycled them in a purge. Luckily Polly's write-up gave me an in, when she talked about the way the film changes from black and white to colour. Bingo - a magic card.
I followed the tutorial (linked above), using Labels 10 to cut my aperture, ,and a brick ef for the front. I went with poppies, or at least a poppy...and on the front I added some little bluebirds above the rainbow, and some emeralds.

Sabrina I love your theme of having the black and white poppy turn to a red one via a magic card..so creative!! And you also got the yellow brick and a rainbow in there as well..great job! Oh and I see there are emeralds, too to pay homage to the Emerald City...good thinking!

I love your magic card. I've been thinking about doing one lately. They were always so much fun but hard to cut the center out and now with dies I think it would be so much easier. I like the yellow brick frame and the beautiful flower, and a side dish of the cute rainbow.

What a clever way to surprise someone. Perfect for the party. A very pretty poppy and super yellow brick frame. Would be a great idea for a kids card too. Going to have to check this out. Will be so loved. The tickler will be tickled for sure with the " magic " and the neat pops of the movie...down memory lane...TFS..:0)...In my favs for sure...:0).

Beautiful card Sabrina! The yellow bricks make a perfect frame for your lovely poppies. We were on the same wave length. I knew I was going to make a magic card as soon as I read Polly's description.
