Back from Spring Break and what a fun week we had…it is really beginning to feel like Spring here in central Texas which makes me think of the upcoming blooming flowers, and so I dug out my pack of Cottage Wall DSP which has some beautiful floral themes in it…
Only to find that I don’t have alot of this beautiful paper left…so I decided to find a way to use up these scraps to create a card and this is what I came up with…
This card is so very simple and adaptable to any scraps that you have around and suitable for any occasion just by changing the sentiment – to help you easily find sets with sentiments in them, you can use StampSearch which you can find by clicking HERE – simply type ‘sentiment’ into the search box and click ‘Go’ – it’s as easy as that! I used a sentiment stamp from Whimsical Words which I got for free* as it is featured in the Sale-a-bration Catalog.
My card uses the colors Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive and Whisper White – I simply punched out circles of DSP using my 1 1/4″ Circle Punch and layered them onto co-ordinating circles that I cut using my 1 3/8″ Circle Punch. I adhered them and attached one of them using Dimensionals to give a bit of an impact. I finally added a piece of Rich Razzleberry Polka Dot Ribbon and a little bit of 1/4″ Old Olive Grosgrain Ribbon and there you have a very simple card that is a great way to use up those scraps of patterned papers that you have lying around…
love this idea! I’ll be using it to clean up all those small scraps on my desk. TFS!
