Hi everyone! Do you remember playing Spot the Difference games? Today, I am sharing eight similar but different cards, and noticing the changes between them is a bit like playing that game. I needed to make a few birthday cards, and since the Capybaras! stamp sets from Lawn Fawn were still on my desk, they seemed the logical choice. The basic design was inspired by the card I made for my Mum’s 80th birthday back in October, which you can see here, although this time I decided to make things simpler for myself and left out the giant cake in the background.
Every time I bulk-create cards using small stamps like those from Lawn Fawn, I wonder why I do it to myself. It does take some time, but I can’t help it. I love creating with them.
Since I knew I was making eight cards, I stamped all the images I needed from the Capybaras!, Capybaras Add-on, Plane and Simple, and Kanga-rrific Add-on stamp sets, all from Lawn Fawn. I then set to colouring and die-cutting. Yes, it did take a while! My colour choices for the capybaras, trees, birds, rocks and grasses were the same for each card to simplify the process. I then chose a couple of different colour combinations for the party hats and cakes to give each card a little more individuality.
Next up was the assembly. At first glance, the cards all look the same, but if you look a little closer, you can see I did play around with a couple of items – mostly, the placement of the frog. A few times I placed it on the back of the capybara, but in others, I moved it closer to the tree. I have to say, when making bulk designs like this, you do get to play around with a few elements. I can tell you there are things I would repeat if I were to make these cards again, and other things I would not!
Here are the cards…
I always love creating with Lawn Fawn products. They are just so darling! I also love creating little scenes. So much fun! I do have a couple of favourites. What about you?
Hope you have a wonderful day! Thanks so much for stopping by!
