Take a five-minute walk, then make something using whatever materials are available where you’ve ended up. Leave it there for someone else to discover…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I bought a Silhouette Portrait electronic cutting tool<\/a> a number of weeks ago and have been looking forward to using it for something other than test cuts. So I decided to bend the rules for this challenge by printing and cutting some things to take with me.<\/p>\n

We live in the suburbs and there are a number of nearby parks, so I pondered what would suit those environments and be a pleasure to discover. Miyamoto’s Pikmin<\/a> immediately sprung to mind, and I found some nice promotional images suitable for paper cut-outs.<\/p>\n

Heidi and I took the cut-outs down to a nearby park just before dusk so that we would have good lighting for photos. She arranged them into a small scene and I took a few snaps.\u00a0I think that it all turned out rather well. I wonder if they will be discovered.<\/p>\n
