Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our There’s No Place Like Home Challenge! Since Pennsylvania literally means “Penn’s Woods”, I wanted to go to the forest for this one.


I started by combining images from a whole bunch of stamp sets, including Butterfly Kisses, Scootin’ By, Porcu-pine for You, You Autumn Know, Scripty Autumn Sentiments, Let’s Go Nuts, You Are Sublime, and I Like You (A Lotl). I stamped the images in Jet Black Ink, colored them with my Copic markers, and trimmed them out with their matching dies.


Then I blended Distress Oxide Inks onto a panel of Bristol Cardstock. Working from the top down, I used Seedless Preserves, Worn Lipstick, Spun Sugar, and Bundled Sage. Then I die cut the Spooky Forest Backdrop out of another panel of Bristol and blended on Bundled Sage for the grass, and Vintage Photo and Gathered Twigs for the trees. I did some splatter detail with the Vintage Photo and added some metallic watercolor splatter on the sky with the Gansai Tambi Starry Colors.


I added some 1/8” double-sided tape to the back of some of the branches so I could adhere my leaves to the treetops, then popped the Spooky Forest Backdrop over the background with foam tape and glued that to a Kraft card base. I adhered the rest of the images with a mix of foam tape and liquid glue. For the sentiment I stamped the word “hello” on the background, then stamped the word “fall” in Walnut Ink and used the matching die to cut it out. I finished off the card with some Stardust Stickles. I also did some stamping on the inside in Walnut Ink.

Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Awesome Autumn Challenge! This card was actually inspired by a handmade birdhouse someone recently gifted me. I wanted to make her a special thank you card, so I took different elements that she used in the design and tried to recreate them in stamp form. I combined images from Winter Birds, Winter Birds Add-on, Our Friendship Grows, A Bug Deal, Scripty Autumn Sentiments, and Christmas Dreams. I stamped them all out with Jet Black Ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.


For the background, I started with a couple pieces of Bristol Cardstock and blended on Distress Oxide Inks. For the sky I used Broken China with the Cloudy Stencil. The grass I trimmed down with the Slimline Grassy Hillside Borders. Then I colored the taller one with Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn, and the shorter one with Mowed Lawn and Rustic Wilderness.


I stamped a sentiment at the top right of the focal panel and glued it to a Mermaid card base. I added the taller of the grassy hills over top with liquid glue, and popped the shorter one up with foam tape. Then I adhered my images with a mix of liquid glue and foam tape until the scene was nice and full. I finished with a bit of Stardust Stickles and stamped on the inside with Fish Tank Ink.

Christy’s Wizard of Oz Inspired Card

- Nancy Krueger 5 Comments

We hope you are having fun with the Inspired by a Book, Movie or Song challenge and we can’t wait to see your creativity! This challenge will be open until Sunday April 3 at 11:59PM ET.

Hey friends, it’s Christy with another card for our Inspired by a Book, Movie, or Song Challenge! Since the Wizard of Oz is my favorite movie, I wanted to try to recreate one of the most iconic scenes in the film.

I used the girl from Bicycle Built for You as the Wicked Witch of the East, and added in some foliage from You Are Sublime, Critters Down Under, and Butterfly Kisses. I stamped the images in Jet Black Ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

For the yellow brick road, I blended Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink onto a panel of Bristol Smooth Surface Cardstock, then added Fossilized Amber over top using the Brick Stencil. For the grass I used Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, and Rustic Wilderness on another piece of Bristol. Then for the house, I took some White Woodgrain Cardstock, cut it into strips, and distressed it with Pumice Stone. I trimmed the grass panel out with the Large Cross-Stitched Square Stackables, and the yellow brick road with one of the Simple Stitched Hillside Borders.

I layered the yellow brick road in the bottom right corner of the grass panel, added my Wicked Witch of the East, and then glued the strips of Woodgrain Cardstock over top at an angle for the house. Then I added some greenery around the edges of the house, just like you see in the movie.

Then I took a sheet of blue patterned paper from the new Gotta Have Gingham Rainbow Petite Paper Pad that reminded me of Dorothy’s dress and trimmed that down with the largest of the Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I adhered that to a Cilantro card base to represent the Emerald City and glued the focal panel on top.

The sentiment I took from Scripty Autumn Sentiments. I white heat embossed part of it on Black Licorice Cardstock and stamped the rest in Lobster Ink and trimmed that out with its matching die. Then to finish up the card, I added some red stickles to the ruby slippers to give them that classic shimmer.

I also stamped one of Dorothy’s friends on the inside. To see which one, you can check out the video tutorial on my YouTube Channel, Christy Gets Crafty. If you haven’t yet entered our Inspired by a Book, Movie, or Song Challenge, there is still some time! We can’t wait to see what projects you’ll come up with!

Thank you so much for sharing with us today, Christy! This design is so clever!
