Playing with scraps

So... what do you do with your scraps? Do you leave them on your desk to collect dust or do you simply put them far away in a box or something like that?

Well, I'm having loooots of fun playing with these little leftover papers.. which resulted in the following 2 cards.

This first card is created with scraps from THIS layout:

Supplies: Cardstock: Bazzil, Patterned paper: American Crafts, Floss: DMC, Jewels/stars: Hotfix, Rubons: Melissa Frances, Flower: Prima, Button: Autumn Leaves, Embossing: Cuttlebug embossing folders, Other: stickpins, 3d paint, ink, sewing machine, staples.

Supplies: Cardstock: Bazzil, Patterned paper: Heidi Swapp, Bracket: Making Memories, Sequin & Jewels: Doodlebug, Floss: DMC, Chipboard: American Crafts, Embossing: Cuttlebug embossing folders, Other: Stickpin, ink, staples


Ok.. that's it for today... gotta run.... (BTW.... talking about running.. I'm still doing it girls.. YEAH! I'm so proud of myself.. never thought I'd actually like it...hehe! YAY me!!!)

Thanks again for stopping by!

XOXO

Nancy... you never dissapoint! I love even your "Scrap" cards! LOL... always great inspiration when I am making cards for troops (I just like to mass produce those). Thanks for the colorful inspiration!

Gorgeous cards as always! I love your style! I am wondering if you do anything to your embossed dots when you use them? I loved them on your cards and finally found it!!!

I use scraps for all my cards. I have a large pile of scraps. Bt it's getting lower and lower after all cards I made recently! Nice cards Nancy!!

Je kaartjes zijn weer prachtig geworden. En dat het restjes zijn, kun je er echt niet aan af zien. Zulke mooie kleurtjes, en het vormt een heel fleurig geheel.
