Hi everyone, welcome to the MSB blog! Here in Italy scrapbooks supplies are very expensive and it’s usually hard to find the latest collections. That’s why I always save all my scraps, even the tiny ones. Do you do that?
My challenge for you today is to use your scraps to scrap a LO and with the “scraps of the scraps” do a card!!!
Here’s my page:
I started working with a base cardstock (the only thing that wasn’t a scrap) and used all my coordinating scrap papers to embellish my page. To give a little accent I used my Colorful Companions set and stamp a few butterflies, I give them dimension with some rolled up glue dots underneath the wings and added some glitter.
and here’s the card:
For my card I used the scraps from the scraps (The blue white dotted paper is a scrap, I cut it from the center of the LO… and the “hole” is covered by my kraft cardstock…. super savy!). I added a butterfly from my Colorful Companions set and used my Road Trip set over white cardstock to give a wavy pattern and a little texture.
I hope you give this a try! and if you do don’t forget to share the link in the comments!
bye!
lOVE your LO, eva!!!!! Love all the little details on it, you queen-of-scrap!!!! I always have a bucket-ful of scraps on my desk to add to my pages or cards — so incredibly fast & easy. i always find a fun, quirky paper in there to staple to my pages (gives a little “pop” sometimes). thanks for the great inspiration today, Eva!!!!!
Such a great way of getting your money’s worth from your scrap supply!!
I am going to try and do this… I have so many scraps!
Sorry… forgot to tell you how nice your page and card are!! Love the butterfly!
Fabulous use of scraps Eva! Love the card that resulted from your beautiful layouts scraps. Fabulous girl!
I really love how you used the wavy stamp on your card…really neat. Way to use those scraps. Sorry things are so expensive. I think you should take a trip to the US and shop while you are here.
I love how you used kraft as your card base, it makes the other colors just sing!
GReat use of your stash! Beautiful colors going well together!
Fantastic projects Eva!!
