So I created a second card based on Kim Kesti's sketch shown on page 22 of the Sept/Oct issue of Paper Crafts magazine. And continued to use up pieces of scrap. This time I used one of my new stamps from American Crafts. Isn't that deer the sweetest!! and this time I did make the card square (yesterday's card used the same sketch but it was a typcial A2 size). See that light brown circle, it is cardstock that has woodgrain already embossed into it. However, the store where I bought it did not have the manufacturer identified so I just know that it is super cool!!
Well, there you have it! 7 cards all using nothing but scraps and all inspired by the September/October Paper Crafts magazine. taht was lots of fun!! I'll have to try it again soon!
Have a great weekend!

Awesome use of your scraps, Donelda! This is such a sweet card, but would be perfect for a guy, too. Love the woodgrain panel!!
Beautiful Card, Donelda. I like the stiching round the circle.
Great job, I have been looking for that American Crafts stamp set, I think I could make great use of it. But, alas,I live in a small city with limited shopping options {yes, I am aware that I can shop on-line, but I have a self imposed budget to work within}
I really like the monochromatic scheme. I sure helps to tie it all together.
AND, your scrap cards NEVER look like scrap cards. I always feel mine have a bit of a mismatched quality to them.
Cute as! Love the little deer. And that woodgrain textured paper is great!
:)
Good on you for going so long on scraps, that's fantastic!
What a sweet little card! I think I'm going to crown you the Queen of Scraps. Does your pile actually go down when you use scraps. I swear, when I use a scrap, I only end up making two more scraps. They are multiplying exponentially!!
Great "scrappy" card! That deer is indeed cute....
