This week's challenge over at the High Hopes blog is brought to us by the super talented Jeanne. Jeanne is asking us to Use Up Your Scraps!! We all have them....piles full, drawers full, buckets full! Pull out some leftover cardstock, patterned paper, an already stamped or coloured image and make something from it instead of pulling out some new stuff. Let's use it up!
The papers used on my card today are scraps left over from cards made earlier in the month and are a mixture of MME Magnolia and DCWV Citrus. The cute buggy stamp is High Hopes Sweet Dreams with sentiment "Kiss of the Sun". The bright buttons are from the Fiesta button collection. I have also used my SU Photo corner punch. The flower and metal button were from my stash and I have added a waxed cotton bow to finish.
Be sure to check out the inspirational samples from the rest of the gang!
Have a great Monday! Mines a boring one with household chores, grocery shopping and ... oh no.. the dentist! gulp!
