So, all I have to say is "BOING!" Do you know what I'm referring to? I found these action wobblers at the last Rubber Stamp expo on Oahu and couldn't wait to use them! I had it all planned out, but after I started making the card, I realized that they were too big for my image. Boo. So I improvised like any other crafter would, (or maybe I get that from my husband?) and cut down the adhesive part in hopes that it would fit under Takeo's balloons. Let's just say it didn't really fit, but I made it work somehow.
Kept the rest of the card very simple by using some of my new Spring Distress Inks by Ranger and my favorite sensei- Tim Holtz! I haven't gotten my Summer set yet, but I'm sure they will be just as fun to play with. I gotta say that I love these colors!! I didn't use the peacock color that was included in the set cause I thought it might be too dark, so I ended up using tumbled glass instead. The sentiment is from a old Hero Arts birthday set.
Now for the fun part... BOING!
I tried really really hard to activate the wobbler for the photo and I think I got a pretty good shot! Well, you can see my finger in the photo, but you get the idea. I don't recommend doing this if you have the action wobblers. It barely fit and you can see some of it sticking out from behind it. But I guess I was determined enough to make it happen. If there's a will, there's a way right?
