Odds and Ends

I don't know about you but I have a little box that I keep reject die cuts and stamped images in that I thought I would use on a particular project and then decide not to. Last night I was going through this little box, which was beginning to get rather full, and started pulling out different pieces and thought, why don't I just make a card using the odds and ends out of it! So this is what I pulled together. The only extras I added were the dry embossing on the back card base (swiss dots) and the stamped flourish on the bird. It was fun to make something "new" out of the "old" :) Maybe give it a try yourself! If you do link your creation here so I can come take a look. Have a wonderful day!

Yes, I have a box of scraps like this. I had fun making a mini-album over the weekend using just bit and pieces. It's fun! And your card looks awesome!

I need to figure out a better way to take pictures also! I am thinking of doing something like this! I love you pieces and parts card, it is so cute!

Hehe, I have one of those boxes also! I really must follow your example and do something with the bits! I seem to keep adding to it, but do not take anything out!!
