Use Your Paper Scraps - Birthday Card by Susanne

Hi everyone!

It's Susanne writing today and I'm sharing one tip to use some of your paper scraps.  I am sure that everybody has some!!!  I'm mixing my scraps with the Textured Flowers and the Beautiful Words stamp sets.


These papers are from the DCWV 12" x 12" Birds & Butterfly Stack.  I tore five different strips with my most favourite patterns.

I also used another piece of black scrap paper and embossed some of the lovely flowers with WOW! Opaque White powder.

I stamped two of the Textured Flowers with Memento Luxe "Pear Tart" onto my card base.  I used the "happy" from the Beautiful Words for the first part of my sentiment.


The paper strips are adhered, with a bit of overlapping.


Finally I embellished the card with my flowers and the "Birthday" die cut (CUTplorations).  The black gives a high contrast, which lets the colors pop even more.

Thank you for stopping by today.
xx Susanne.

Rubber Dance Stamp Challenge - October

Image
Klikk her for info på norsk (info in Norwegian) Hello, gorgeous! Are you ready for another fun challenge? I guess you are! Our colour scheme and theme this month might not come as a big surprise. After all, fall/autumn is all around us (here in the north, anyway), and we do love its glorious colours! We hope you do, too, when you create an entry (or three) for our October Challenge: Did you know that "fall" is an Old English word? It replaced the word 'harvest' in the early 1600s as more people started moving into cities. City dwellers began to use the phrase 'fall of the leaf'' and, over time, the phrase was shortened to fall. Surprisingly, etymologists don’t know where the word "autumn" comes from. It was used as far back at the 1300s (by Chaucer), and Shakespeare often used the word, too. As English spread to the New World, the common season names split as well and today, American English uses the word fall while British English
