Mornin' y'all! Sunday means it's time for a new challenge from The Paper Players...I think the colors I picked last week scared some people away, so I hope lots of stampers join in Jan's new Clean and Simple challenge!
Y'all know my brain is a bit wily, and as soon as I saw this challenge my wily brain immediately said...
TORNADO FROM WIZARD OF OZ!!! And yes, I do have Wizard of Oz stamps. Actually, I have Wizard of Oz stamps from multiple companies; the two I used today were part of a sheet (or possibly two?) of unmounted rubber stamps that I acquired years ago and I have no idea who the manufacturer is. I've used some other stamps from this set on a scrapbook layout before and I have lots more images that I haven't inked up at all yet, plus the stamps from other manufacturers too. (And as much as I love the original Wizard of Oz, I am Not A Fan of Wicked...I read it when the book came out and I just hated it!!) Anyway, I had to go with a sepia tone to match the beginning of the movie, and just a teensy bit of blue gingham to call Dorothy's dress to mind.

Christy, this is fantastic. I am a Wizard of Oz lover and these stamps are great. I grew up in Indiana and we experienced several tornados! They scare me to death. The pop of blue and the sentiment are fabulous! Have a great week, My Friend!
I LOVE this! How clever, and who would think to use a tornado on a card, but I love the sentiment AND the gingham as a nod to Dorothy's dress. I think my brain must be wired kind of like yours, LOL!
