This card wasn't even planned, I was just playing around with that platypus from Lawn Fawn's Critter's Down Under set and was trying out the mirror technique. I had no plan in mind when making this card, but little by little it came together. I used a whole slew of LF sets, six to be exact! That's right, SIX! Here they are:
- The platy's you know- Critter's Down Under
- The log and sentiment came from Critter's in the Forest
- The cloud- Bon Voyage
- The little cloud puffs and the bow came from Pa-Rum-Pa-Pum-Pum
- The bigger heart came from Critter's Ever After
- The little hearts came from Cruising Through Life
As this creation came to life, I was wanting to use this patterned paper in the backdrop because again, this one had the inspiration photo for Lawnscaping's Challenge written all over it. Just like in the picture, I actually originally wanted to use it for a little bow tie to make a little boy platypus, but it didn't quite work out that way. Despite that, I think this card turned out really fun. What do you think of my girl platy's lips? :)
Obviously I was pretty impressed with myself by using these stamps in so many ways. That just makes the stamps so much more valuable; being able to use them for something other than what they are. The possibilities are just endless. What other uses can you see? What else can I use some of these stamps for? I would love to hear your ideas! I've got one to leave you with too- that smallest little cloud puff would make a perfect piece of popcorn don't you think?!
Happy Monday all!
