I thought this challenge would be a good time to get out my Wizard of Oz stamps...oh, who am I kidding? I had so much fun with this challenge I made TEN CARDS for it today!!! Anyway, Dorothy got her moment in the spotlight.
I stamped her in Chocolate Chip and then sponged on Creamy Caramel, Close to Cocoa, and Chocolate Chip ink, kinda going for the sepia tone look from the beginning of the movie. I still think I need to put these stamps on some EZ Mount, they need some cushion. But anyway. I had the card put together and I just set it on the desk for a bit, and then I decided that it needed a narrow blue mat around Dorothy--it's amazing what a difference that made to the card! I liked it before but now I know it's done and I love it. -toots her own horn, that's related to music, right?-
My inspirational song was Somewhere Over the Rainbow!
