The Wizard of Oz

Welcome here!!  I'm so pleased to be sharing my first M4M creation with you.  This month we have been showcasing creations inspired by the movies, and what better childhood movie than The Wizard of Oz.

Card Size: 4.25" x 5.5"

I used Saturated Canary's digital stamp called Pigtails. It's the perfect stamp to use as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz.  I was stumped at how to decorate the card once I had my image coloured, and decided to go with black and white...just like how the beginning of the movie starts out in black and white.

Here's Dorothy's red glitter shoes.

I added the yellow brick road using 3 different Copic yellows and randomly coloured bricks...I also decided to add Oz in the background, and I used the chisel tip for the first time, lol.

Copics Used:

Skin - E0000, E00, YR000, R20, R00

Hair - E11, E15, E17, E18, E19

Dress - B02, B04, B06, C1

Hoodwinked....

Inspired by Vampires

Hi all,

Long before Twilight and Bella and Edward hit our screens there were another couple of handsome vampires on the big screen. I am talking about Lestat and Loius from Interview With A Vampire, who were played by Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. They are who the inspiration for my card came from.

I have used a Tiddly Inks image called “Vamp Me” and used the following copics to colour it:
Skin: boy – E50, E51 girl - E000, E00, E21, R22, R20, R11 Hair: boy - E51, E53, E55 girl – B24, C7, C9, C10 Top: R22, R24, R27 ,R29

Now it’s your turn to be inspired by your favourite movie or perhaps the glitz and glam of the red carpet and join us in this months challenge.

Star Wars

For the movie challenge this month I decided to go with an all boy theme.  Today I'm sharing with you my first card, featuring The Force Boy a digi from Saturated Canary.  I am not a Star Wars fan however I have previously had a request for a Star Wars card so I figured I'd colour him up again and use him for this challenge.

I used-
Digital Stamp The Force Boy from Saturated Canary
Copics used:
Skin E000, E00, E11, E93.
Hair E31, E33, E35
Clothes etc. E08, E25, E27,E29 - B0000, B000, B00, B93, E97, B99 - C1, C2, C3, C5, C7 C9.

We'd love to see your movie inspired creations or a card that is worthy of the red carpet.
Gretchen
