We're off to See the Wizard.....

Well actually I think she's already seen him and is clicking her heels to get home!!!  This was made for my niece and her fiance, who have just moved into their first house in readiness for their new baby due in the new year!  How exciting for them. 

 
I just love all things Wizard of Oz as do most of our family so this wonderful image from Mo's Digital Pencil, called Kansas, seemed appropriate.  I've teamed her up with the new Graphic 45 Wizard of Oz papers - lovely poppies on these ones!! The sign post I cobbled together from a Tim Holtz bracket die and Nestie tag die!

This perfect sentiment is by Cat's Life Press purchased from Crafty Emmas - love it!!

You can't quite see it in my pics but her shoes are all red and sparkly as of course they should be!!
I'm loving all of Mo's Oz images - watch out for another card coming soon!!  I can't wait until she adds the Tin Man and Lion to the set, and then you can have the Glinda the Good Witch, the Wicked Witch of the West, Dorothy, the Scarecrow all together!! What a fab scene that would make!

I'm entering my card into the following challenges:
Delightful Challenges - Colours of Fall
Meljens Designs - Use a Ribbon
The Play Date Cafe - Colour Inspiration
Crafts and Me - the colour Orange
I Love Promarkers - Fall colours
Bearly-Mine Challenges - Easel does it

Thanks for popping in and hellloooo to my new followers  - "waves"!

    I really love how you took advantage of the edge of your card and made your objects jump up over it. That lamppost thingy is so neat and how adorable is that cutie pie. Thanks so much for playing along at The Play Date Cafe.

    Ok ... this is my last comment before you think you have a stalker lol ... This is the stamp that I found randomly some time ago that brought Mo's images to my attention and I love her (my all time favourite movie for the last 35 or so years is the Wizard of Oz and I have handed this love onto my 8yr old daughter) ... Thanks again for your creativity. Julie :D
