Using scraps.

 


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday, and Lindsey has chosen the theme of using scraps this fortnight.


Of course, if you don't have any scraps, then you can play along with our anything goes option, as long as it's for a birthday.
The design team and our party guest have lots of wonderful ideas to inspire you, so I hope you can play along.


I'm afraid I have a lot of scraps! I keep all sorts of papers and bits of backgrounds.
You'd be amazed at what you can diecut out of a scrap!

This diecut is the leftover piece from this card.

I had used alcohol inks and pearl inks on a sheet of yupo and only needed a piece large enough to fit behind the circle in that card.

I trimmed this leftover to fit the stitched rectangle. It was a bit fiddly glueing it down as a couple of the tiny pieces came loose so I had to jigsaw them back in place.
There's no more of it left now!

The black and white rectangles are also from my scrap drawers.

I'm linking up to these challenges:




Dies R Us, anything goes


Supplies:
Sizzix bouquet die; Ranger alcohol inks and pearl alcohol inks in greens and yellows; yupo paper; Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die; sentiment sticker; hammered card base.

Thanks for visiting,
