It's the third Wednesday of July, which means it's the day that Kelly, Barb, and I share our Ready, Set, Go creations. Not sure what that is? Well, it's a lot of fun! And a bit of creativity. And an extreme challenge theme.
Ready, Set, Go is an idea that Kelly came up with over two years ago and she invited Barb and I to join her on the adventure. We take turns choosing the theme, but the idea is for it to be a bit more challenging than just the average theme. Ready? Set? Go!
This month it was my turn to choose the theme.
I told Kelly and Barb that I am always impressed when I see cards/projects where the crafter used a stamp/die in a way other than it was originally intended to be used. I even shared a few examples with them, just to get our creativity flowing, which of course I didn't really need to do because Kelly and Barb are two of the most creative people I know... awesome card-makers!
This is the July theme... Make a card using a stamp or die in a way other than it was originally intended.
Ready? Set? Go!
Did you figure out what stamp on my card is used in a different way than intended? It's the flower pot. The flower pot is actually a lampshade, turned upside down.
There She Goes "Lighten Up" stamp set:
Here's the inside of my card:

I love the fun layout and bright colors on this fabulous card, Jeanette!!
I'm oohing and awwing over this gorgeous and quite clever card! This is one fun idea to invert a lamp shape and create a vase - very clever :) It's such a cheerful and happy card with the little flowers blossoming onto the card - a fun challenge this month! I'd say you chose well!
