Probably one of the easiest challenges given is 'Use Your Scraps' Challenge. To be honest, the longer I craft, the less scraps I keep. Not that I'm wasteful, I just don't have a lot of storage space left and that space is valuable real estate!
A lot of my scraps I use to die cut or punch various size tags. The are usable on my cards and I have quite a variety of sizes and designs. When a recent Weekend Scrap Challenge came out, I had just received a new larger sized die . It was Matty's Crafting Joy, Stitched Slot Pocket Die and gives you different stitched slots to add embellishments, tags or just about anything.
For this challenge, I added the tag to the front of two card bases and used stamps from the Sweet 'N Sassy, Timeless Hymns stamp set.
I selected 6 different patterned papers and a couple of solids that coordinated well together. Then I cut several tag dies of each of the pieces and stamped several of the sentiments from this lovely set from Sweet 'n Sassy.
Then I sorted them into each card base, tucking them gently in the slots and adding a special message inside to make this a very special gift card.
Thank you for stopping by today to view my
