This is my entry to the Mixed Media Monday doll challenge. I love this challenge! There are so many creative possibilities, and I was trying to think of what to make when I realized the song "Tin Man" was stuck in my head, so I went with it. I had saved the top from a travel size dental floss container because it looked like a face to me. It was the perfect size for my project. A little paint on some bendy straws made great arms. It was fun rummaging around in all my metal bits. The cardstock was a metal print design, the gear "innards" are a varitey of stamped , punched, watch parts, brads, and metal washers. It is hard to get a good photo of it, but can you see that inside his heart locket is an image of Dorothy and one of Toto? All the parts fold in to a form a standard size ATC!
