I’m right back into stamping again now and I’m having some fun. Today’s little project is for the “Going Green” challenge at the TOFF Challenge Blog. The only stipulation for this challenge is to add a bit of green, and that is any green.
My project is a peg magnet for the refrigerator.
The digital image is from the Octopode Factory – “Flutterby”. I coloured the image with Copics and added some glitter on the wings and Dimensional Magic on the eyes.
I added some Washi Tape to the front of the peg and a magnet to the back.
In this photo you can see that I printed the image twice and cut out just the body of one image to raise above the wings. I attached the butterfly to some green card on which I had printed out “Flutter by Butterfly” and die cut some grass.
Now it is in use on my frig.
Talking about going green, how is this for sustainable transport? I spotted them on my travels a couple of days ago.
The donkey cart is waiting for its passengers to finish their grocery shopping before heading back home. This little town has quite a few families who choose alternative lifestyles.
This donkey’s name is Frodo which stuck in my mind but the other donkey’s name eludes me – might have been Daisy. This mode of travel really suits Maldon which is an historic gold mining town which has kept its history alive by retaining many of its original buildings. I would have taken photos of the shops but a storm rushed in just as I was taking photos of the donkeys. If you would like to read more about Maldon here is a link.
