I just mentioned to Management that I had made 3 cards this week, "all from scraps!" I said proudly. He looked confused. "Don't you always work with scraps? Isn't that what scrapbooking is? How do you get scraps from scrapbooking?" I rolled my eyes, huffed and turned away.
Here they are, new from old.
One for Louis' teacher who has been in hospital. Old chipboard, old papers, old gems. It got me thinking about some of the other stash I have that never seems to make it to a layout.
One for a little girl's 4th birthday. Shocking photo, just couldn't seem to get the light right. I blame the weather, not my poor photography skills. I promise you that the gems are straight, I learned something here - never use small round embellishments with polka dot papers.
Lastly one for Bella's ballet teacher. I am so pleased to have been able to use this fab ballet shoe ribbon. I used a tutorial by Kirsty Wiseman over at Fantastic Ribbons for the bow so big mmwwaaah to you Kirsty! The black card is actually embossed with swiss dot but its a bit hard to see here.
You may have noticed in these pictures that things have moved a little in my craft room. With all the organising that went on in the last 10 days, things got a bit shifted in my room too but I'll save that for another post.
Bye for now
