Scrap Cardmaking Session

Evenin' All,

Back to share with you a few photos of some cards I made using up some scraps. I am keen to get into stash busting mode so got down to business when I had to make a few cards for some up coming friends birthdays I had recently. They have all had their cards now so I can share them with you!!

Both of these where made with black, white and grey scraps from my scrap bags. The card on the left has some washi tape, red velvet Ric-rack and a couple of pound shop stickers. (The flowers and ladybug) With some pearls and a Craftwork Cards Simply Sayings message in Gold. The card on the right has some twine with a heart that I used on my brothers wedding stationary so it seemed only fitting to send it to my SIL for her birthday!!

The card on the left was made with scraps from a Sarah's Cards Kit and the one on the right was made from a Class kit that was taught by Rachael Elliott at a  Sarah's Cards Retreat I went on in March 2011. I get such satisfaction from using up these bits and getting to the end of a kit... Trust me, it doesn't happen very often!! LOL Again both cards have Craftwork Cards messages which are a staple in my craft kit as they just give a quick and professional finish to any card.

So on that note I'm off to have a look around my desk and see what else I can use up!!

Nitey nite folks
Txx
