Hi Everybody,Do you have favorite papers that you have used and then end up with lots of left overs that aren't really big enough to do another card ???
I have lots of these and I cannot for the life of me throw them away.
I have flower making sessions where I will spend the whole day making lots of different coloured flowers and packing them neatly ready to use.
But sometimes I have papers that all blend together and with these I can cobble a card that I am happy with and this is one such card.
These are all papers that I had left over from the projects I made using the Funky Hand CD "Wishes and Kisses" and I have just cut them into equal squares to fit my card front.
It is made from the Hinged Card style using the Matting Basics and the only other die I have used is the small label form the Radiant Rectangles.
Onto this I have stamped and heat embossed my sentiment from JustRite
But the card itself is made from the Mosaic Card Tutorial and I have used a small amount of Gilding Flakes.
Once the Big Double Bow was added and the pearly Bling from Want2Scrap .... I think the card can be said to be finished
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
I just love ideas to use those "pretty bits" of my stash - thanks again Christina for some brilliant inspiration! x
ReplyDeleteLOve it Christina.. a real patchwork beauty.. such a clever idea... and quite addictive once you get started!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. Marvellous technique but I think I would have difficulty putting the squares down straight - the strips look easier.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, Christina!
ReplyDeleteLovely card Christina & a good way to use up scraps. Pat x
ReplyDeletesuch a lovely pretty card Christina and a fantastic way to use up all those bits of paper I can't throw away. I have just watched the video tutorial thank you so much for taking the time to do this for us, I couldn't leave a comment for the video though as I am not with any of the listed xx
