I couldn't wait for this Stampendous challenge because the second I heard witch...I knew I had to make this "Wizard of Oz" inspired card! I really wanted to do something different than a Halloween witch( not that I'm anti Halloween witch, I love all witches equally without judgement). Besides, If I did a Wizard of Oz card that meant lots of BLING!
I thought the silhouette image on the Mirror Mirror Stamp would be perfectto represent that wicked witch of the west! To represent OZ I had to go green! Stampendous has THE MOST perfect sets of fine glitters, embossing powders, glass glitters to help me create the feeling of the emerald city!
