fun at the park .....

Hi all ive got my card for mduc to show today ,the theme this week is to make a scene how could i resist !!! After hours of picking out stamps and putting them back and going away and thinking some more this is what i came up with i couldnt decide whether to do a step card or pop up so i had a fiddle around and kind of combined the two and the amazing thing is it all folds down to go in a 6x6 gift box !! I wanted to do a theme i hadnt done before and the new sweet rainbow stamps screamed playing at the park so i went with that adding some old favourites ,i started by masking the background with 8 different stamps then stamped out the others ,coloured with distress inks and cut out .I then made the little seasaw which moves up and down as is attached with a brad ,added some grass and flowers and bingo job done !!! just about 8 hours of work but never mind OH and kids out all day so i made the most of it !!!

Afternoon everyone today ive got something a bit different !! the challenge this week at mduc is the kitchen i was thinking for ages what i could do then as the week went on i had so much dt stuff to get done i didnt think i would have time to do anything but i love mduc challenges so have managed to find time to make this .I cant take credit for the cupcakes my OH is much better at baking than me so i asked him to make me some while i coloured !!! i just did the fun part of decorating them lol !!! so i chose my images coloured them all with copics and cut out then when the cakes were ready i popped them all on some acetate pieces so they would stand up alone (thank you mduc i cant get enough os acetate since your challenge !!!) and scattered some flowers .My 2 year old was not a happy soldier tho he wanted to eat them didnt understand mummy had to play first !!!
