Good morning, sweet friends!
Yes, I made a boo-boo! And even though I'm one of the clumsiest people ever, the boo-boo is actually my card! :)
You know those moments when you are gettin' your craft on and you make a silly mistake? Sometimes I catch myself looking at the 'error' and think "uh-oh, time to start over." But the real challenge is looking at it again - rethink it and craft onward :)
That's exactly what happened to me when I inked up my Sweet 'N Sassy stamp set "Poppies and Greetings", a set I've had for forever-and-ever. I inked up this darling stamp, and placed it on the paper, right where it was supposed to be - easy peasy! Until I lifted it back up and realized a splotch of ink went with it! Doh!
Rather than just start over, I challenged myself to a little creativity and just restamped the image again, cut out one of the flowers and added it over the splooch :)
Take a peek at the boo-boo card, all mended and blended and healed up with love and care....
I started with the boo-boo ........
and ended with this!
| Here is the inside of my card - left blank for now :) |
I added an extra blossom and an extra stem, propped it up for more dimension and then gave it a sprinkling of yellow stickles.
I'm so pleased with how this card turned out and how cheerful it feels, which is super since it started out as a boo-boo! :)
I would love to hear your boo-boos that you've made and how you turned them into something wonderful! As always, thanks for stopping in today!
Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
