Hi there! Today I am sharing a card that I created 100% from scrap. Hence the title Scrap Factor. I am going to see how many of these scrap cards I can created throughout the remainder of the year.
Everything from the base card to the rhinestones were leftover from a previous card class that I taught.
The dark aqua strip was leftover from cutting a Memory Box card down to create a square card. I decided to use my EK edger punch on it and then I ran it through the Cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots EF. The print cardstock was already this width and I added the brown cardstock to give it a bit of a "pop". I stamped the Wordsworth Mother Theresa sentiment with Memento Rich Cocoa ink onto a Neenah White circle and layered it to a brown scallop circle Nestie. I finished off my card with a bow and a flower (yep, they were leftovers too!)
Do you like to use your scraps when you create? If so, I would love to see your Scrap Factor cards too, leave me a comment with a link and I will check them out!
