Going to be honest... this was another difficult cue word for me. I tend to be way too literal when it comes to cue words and the first thing I thought was "shoot, I don't have any camp related stamps" and I kinda panicked. Then I took a mental step back and reminded myself that the cue word is just that... a cue to get you to think outside the box. And I stated thinking about what are some of the things you see when you see when you go camping. So after trying a few ideas I settled on die cutting some leaves from white cardstock using my SU!/Sizzix Autumn Accents die and adhering them to a white cardstock base. Before adhering one leaf I stamped it using the corresponding stamp from the SU! set Wonderfall. A fishtail flag was die cut from white cardstock, stamped with the sentiment and adhered to the card. A bow was created using light green baker's twine and adhered and I was done.
Thanks for stopping by... I cannot wait to see what "camp-y" ideas all you super talented papercrafters come up with for this challenge!! In the meantime make sure you check out the cards from the rest of the design team: Melissa, Judy, Meghan, Ardyth, Gillian, Maureen, Kimberly, Jen and Tracey and our guest designer, Lisa!
