I got a little sneak preview of some of my E-Teammates art for this hop, and I'm still saying "WOW!" intermittently as I sit here typing. Those ladies know how to make some incredible art! I can't wait to have my socks knocked off by those Crafty Secrets artists, too!
Have a blast on this virtual gallery walk, and an all-around wonderful weekend!
------------------
I made four "super-sized" ATCs for this project (they're 3 x 4", instead of the standard 2.5 x 3.5"). I stamped the wonderful Crafty Secrets Wizard of Oz characters onto plain white cardstock and colored them with Copic Sketch Markers. To get a shabby/aged/disheveled look, I gently wadded up the cardstock, flattened it back out, and lightly covered the colored images with Old Paper Distress Ink using an Ink Blending Tool. I then tore around the images and smudged the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.
I mounted the images onto various designer papers from my stash, then onto textured straw-toned cardstock. Since I didn't manage to work in a Yellow Brick Road anywhere, I laced some Twinery string in Lemondrop through rivets in the corners of each card.
