Lullaby League ~ Scraps of Darkness

 This Over the Rainbow kit is super exciting!!  It is a limited edition kit from Scraps of Darkness.  This is a box full of  the new Graphic 45 Magic of Oz papers, with some other perfectly matched goodies.  I was so happy I got my hands on one!!!!

I made this page using a Stuck on u Sketch by Nanne Harry, and loved how it turned out.  This is a photo of my mom, probably in the early 1950's, in one of her ballerina costumes.  So I went with the theme of those ballerina Munchkins called the Lullaby League for this page.
I used some Prima pearls and small flowers from my stash to help me complete the details I needed for this sketch.
I did a lot of punching, and really liked the way it helped soften the page.  This is a tag of Glinda the good witch, that overlooked the Munchkins.
I love the thick chipboard that was part of the kit....the tickets were part of those tags.
