Today is a new challenge at The Sisterhood of Crafters
and is being hosted by our lovely 'sistah' Vickie
and she has chosen the theme of
'Give Thanks'.
One of the things I love about being on 'this team'
is we can use anything/any product we want
which gives me plenty of opportunity to use my
very neglected stamps!
I love using up scrap and even have a Pinterest board
just of cards with scraps....
so we can say this card was 'Pinterest' inspired!
When I make a card, I usually have a small strip of paper left
and I just bag them all up for this very purpose.
This is where those 6 scraps you see came from
making a pretty 'scrappy' background!
I layered 2 of the Tutti Designs Nesting Stitched Rectangles,
stamping on the top one.
The stamp set I used is a very old one from SU 'Falling Leaves'.
I stamped the leaves and sentiment with
SU So Saffron~Dusty Durango~Old Olive.
So head on over to The Sisterhood and see what fabulous creations
my 'sistah's have made.
Join in with us!!!

I agree - I love it when we can use any of our supplies too. That's one of the things I love about Double D. Great use of scraps here, I think I might have to pin for future reference. Love your colors too....a happy card. Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet card! I think I remember that SU stamp and such a clever way to use scraps. If you feel like it, this card certainly qualifies for the Retro Rubber challenge that just started. I am thankful for all my new "sistahs" this year! Happy Thanksgiving!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful card! Happy Thanksgiving my friend!
