I'll get you.....

Hello fellow Crafters,

Today I did another instalment in my Wizard of Oz series. I've  had the Wicked Witch stamp for a while but I hadn't used it yet. So today was the day...



I couldn't get the colours quite right in the photo, whether is was the light (bit autumnal here) or the color combination on the pages I don't know.

Anyway, I brayered lilac and purple Distress Ink over the pages and liked the effect. I then used a stencil (roman letters) with the same colours of DI. With grey Archival I stamped the text and the heads in the background. Next I stamped 'wicked' also in the same DI colours randomly on the pages. On the right side of the page I stamped (part of) the 'calendar squares' and used white rub-ons to put the words in them. Next I used a white pen to colour the little eyes of the heads. The Wicked Witch was stamped on the page and on white card stock, coloured and clear embossed. I cut her out and glued her on top of  her image in the journal. The sentiment is from the 'Wizard of Oz' film and I typed it on my recently acquired old typewriter. I again used the same DI and a bit of the grey Archival around the edges and glued the words down on the page. That was it, I really enjoyed doing this one.

These are the stamps I used (all from Stampotique):

Thanks for stopping by !

Hope you like it .....

  3. What a great journal, Corrie! I have none of these images, but have to admit they work perfectly together. Love the darker background, as it makes the witch just COMMAND center stage! Great work!
