Hi there!
Is it really the month of May?
The calendar has told me so, and it's also time for the Creation Station Design Team Blog Hop.
Our theme is 'Scraps, left overs and bits & bobs' - stuff left on our craft desk ready to repurpose into something else.... does that sound a bit like you too?


I have a little stash of bits left over from previous projects, and I keep them in a clear case.
Last month I kept some die-cuts and the negative bits from a Tutorial. You just never know when you might need these left overs and lucky I had this months theme to use them.
 
'You're so totally awesome'.
I have used the die-cut wave element and coloured cardstock strips from a left over creation, and I have made a totally different card.
I have used the retired 'High Seas 3D Embossing Folder' for my embossed element.

I added the coloured cardstock strips to a 'Basic Black' circle element, adhering the die-cut wave.
It's kinda retro, and kinda cool for a guy card.

I saved the negative space from the 'Basic Black' die-cut wave, and made a different look - using the same coloured cardstock strips.

'Happy Birthday'
I stamped the sentiment directly to the 'Granny Apple Green' cardstock strip.
Sweet & simple.

So, here's a couple of cards made that were literally in the scrap pile.
I only had to cut 1 x A4 sheet of 'Sahara Sand' cardstock to make the card bases, and all the other layers were left overs too.

A ridiculously tidy craft space!
I have all my crafting goodies in front of me, and to the left of my craft mat is my box of left over stuff just in case!
Always.

Yep, that's my little case of bits & bobs for any moment I may need a little something to add to a creation.
Pieces of Designer Series Paper, stamped sentiments, die cut elements and mini pieces of cardstock live here 

Next up is Kathy and her amazing creations for our Blog Hop.



I hope you have have been inspired by the Creation Station Design Team 'Scraps, leftovers and bits & bobs' Blog Hop? Thankyou for visiting, and see you next time. D x

  3. Gosh! These cards are great! I love the stripes behind the waves. Just perfect! (And I love your scrap box--I think I need to put my scraps into a box instead of leaving them on my desk for the cat to nap on.)
