One Sheet Wonder

I'm calling this the One Sheet Wonder, because I used one sheet of leftover paper from a favorite paper pack. Sometimes you get that favorite paper pack and you can't stand the thought of even wasting a scrap of it. You love the color combinations and the pattern of the paper and you just have to include it on another page. Thats when you dig out your stamps and use the inks that go with that paper pack. The beauty of the whole thing is that the industry has done the hard work for us. They have put together the perfect color combinations and in many cases have even developed a coordinating stamp set. Now our only job is to record our memories and have fun with product. Yay!!
Don't forget to Smell The Paper.

This is a card I created ( out of scraps), I do love my scraps! On this card, I'm especially proud of the little pleated flower in the upper left hand corner. I;m not sure the picture does her justice. The reason I;m so proud of her is that I did it completely with scraps and my score pal, and a little bit of liquid glass adhesive. There is  a famous scrapbook artist in the industry that sells a cutting die for this flower and you get to do it in two sizes. If you use the technique I used, you can create any size flower and even have decorative edges. I did more of these and created some really fun edges. I will try to post a video later.




fun fun fun with flowers

I made these beautiful flowers with circles of scrap patterned paper and CTMH ink, my resist mat and some liquid glass adhesivie. The shimmer is CTMH create a shade pearl paint. Found the flower centers in my stash drawer. Love these guys. They are fun and easy to make and they look so nice when they are finished . You could make them in any size, by just changing the size of your circles. I will try to post my first video later. I will show you how I made these.
