Follow the Yellow Brick Road

This fortnight's Try it on a Tuesday (TIOT) challenge is a sketch to make whatever you want from. As soon as I saw this sketch I thought of my amazing Artistic Outpost Oz Collage stamps. I love these stamps. I couldn't wait to get cracking after seeing all the other cards on the TIOT blog. Besides which, my new kitten was asleep and I had a window of opportunity to get in the craft room.

Here is my interpretation of the sketch, I've missed making a card or two these days, but birthday season is coming up for me so I'll probably not feel the same way come November!



I used Kraft card 8x8", blue gingham to stamp on, TH brick wall embossing folder, Alla Prima paper on the inside and loads of Mustard Seed & Vintage Photo distress ink.

    I really like the colours that you've used, bright yet they carry the vintage feel of the book. I love the inside is so cared for and decorated. Thank you for sharing your piece at TIOT.EE

    I'm humming the tune now! I love how you've done the bricks which look smashing with the blue gingham... oh and the poppies are there too! So many happy memories! Though the monkeys were seriously weird...
