Scraps and Festive Flurry Flower

I have been trying to use some of the "mis-stamped", pre-punched, scrap pieces, etc. that I have sitting around my crafting area. I was able to use several of these items on this card. I used some of my 1/4" wide scrap strips to create a background. I simply lined them up diagonally across my card front.

 



I have also been trying to come up with other ways to use the Festive Flurry stamp set besides as snowflakes. Since, I was using Summer Starfruit as my card base color, I stamped one of the medium sized 'flakes' in the same color. I soon discovered that my previously punched Boho Blossoms pieces matched the center of this stamp perfectly!

I layered everything up and stamped my sentiment using the Petite Pairs stamp set. I can definitely say that I will be making more cards using this scrappy background and changing the focal piece to make a card for any occasion.

Happy Stamping 4 Fun,

More Five-Way Flowers

I had some extra Five-Way Flowers already stamped and punched so I decided to get them made up into cards. Again, here are the pieces that I started with:

 

As I began trying to decide what to make, I can across two sketches/challenges that I could use my flower pieces with. First, was Freshly Made Sketches #126:

 

And my card:

 

 

The other sketch challenge was Connie and Mary - Sketch Challenge CCMC293:

 

 

And my card:

 

 

Now for the other three cards from the remaining Five-Way Flower pieces:

 

 

I hope you are able to find a bit of inspiration in these cards. Thanks for stopping by. Until next time.....
