craft stamper pram stamp

The free stamp with the May 2008 issue of craft stamper is quite an unusual pram stamp. In that it only has one wheel.


I quite like it in a whimsical way, and it is beautifully drwan. however I would have preferred it to have 2 wheels, so it didn't look like it was going to fall over. so I decided to alter it.



you can now use it as it was or separate the two parts and stamp the wheels over the main body of the pram. it works really well.
here's a card I have made with it.



this is not my usual bloggable style, more my commercial style. The other stamps are by onefourzero, and I was sent them as a gift for having a card in the readers gallery of simply cards and papercraft.
I have even used fancy scissors (I NEVER use those nowadays), and did a bit of faux stitching.
