Super Scraps Saturday

We all look forward to this each month at Hiding in My Craft Room A way to use up those scraps that we seems to have taking up space. Here is this weeks card.

All the pieces used in this card are scraps that I have in my scrap bag, the images I have made a while ago for other projects that they did not work for, so they have lived in the scrap bag till now, when I put them all together to make this card!! Love when even the scraps work together :)

The image is from La La Land she is called Ruffles Marci the sunshine is a Peachy Keen stamp and the cloud is a Cricut cut, but I don't know which one! The flower punch was used to create the flowers and I then used liquid pearls for the centres.

The sentiment is from the K Andrew Designs Stamp set Splash-tastic 

So get those scraps and join in the challenge at Hiding in My Craft Room

Have a Crafty Day, Cheers Jennie

The paper is a really old paper, that I have had forever, I really love the summer feel it has

The "shine on" is from Splash-tastic Summer

This is Summer Sweet Wren and all the images were coloured using water colour pencils and a blending pen

And for a celebration there is presents too!! 

All the flowers are from a material flower pack I got from the discount store in the kids craft section

What a Surprise

So over at Hiding in my Craft room this week our challenge is.

 Using your most hideous paper!!

 So off to my old papers that I never uses because they are Hideous, mostly from paper packs. So I chose 2 that some what went together and because my daughter said she did not even want them!! LOL

I consider these VERY hideous as I don't use these colours very much and the squares on the yellow paper do nothing for me....BUT you will never guess what happened when I cut, and layered them, I started to really like them together.

I used Cricut cartridge Elegant Edges for the scalloped background,  the black layer was the oblong  scallop cut 1/4 inch bigger as this has no shadow.

Then for the image. This is a C.C. Designs digi stamp Puppy Kiki La Rue available at All That Scraps.

I coloured the image using water coloured pencils and a blending pen.

Then the Sentiment was stamped using the fabulous K Andrew Designs stamp sets Splash-tastic and All About Animals

So Come and join us with the hideous paper challenge at 

Hiding in my Craft Room

Have a Crafty Day, Cheers Jennie
