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:

More details....
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.


This 2nd card is created with scraps from my previous post:

Here's a better look at it....
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

    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!!!

    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.

    Both cards are gorgeous, girlie. I especially like the first one with the circles. Due to you and Jane Jones I am into circles too at the moment.

    See you tomorrow!
