Show me your scraps!!

If you're like me you have a huge scrap bin!! Little bits of paper that you hold on to, just in case!!! Well, sometimes I pull out my scrap bin to see what I can come up with!!! Here are my latest creations!! 

I started with Whisper White Card Stock by Stampin'Up

Then I took out my Stampin' Up circle punches. I punched till I was happy with the way it looked! Next, I took my scraps and lined the back of the card, so that the bits showed through my punches!! I finished it off with a salutation stamp!! Super simple and very effective!!

Feeling a little corky!

I'm a huge fan of up-cycle!!! I love to refurbish things!! I seen all these cork projects on Pinterest and they peeked my interest!! I decided to beg all my friends for corks, since I don't drink wine! Thankfully, my friends were up to the challenge!!! So, here is what I came up with....

I bought an unfinished tray at Michaels for only $3 and I spray painted it red. Then I just hot glued the corks in!! I'm using it for a hot pad in my kitchen!! So simple!!! I love it!!!

Here is my first card

 For this card I used the All Dressed Up Framelets out of the Spring Mini.

Card Stock used; Whisper White, Basic Black & Polka Dot Parade

The card is Whisper White. I cut a Basic Black square a tad smaller than the card. I used the Framelet dress stand on an additional Whisper white square, a tad smaller than the Basic Black square. I layered them all, then added the Framelet Dress in Polka Dot Parade. Added 3 silver brads and stamped a sweet sentiment on the inside! Easy peasy!!!
