Scrap cards

Well, it has been a while. I kind of lost my mojo. Between being busy and just being brain tired, I had no desire to play in my craft room. Until last night......

Both of these cards where inspired by face book updates all week long by Paper Crafts by Candace. You should totally "like" her on face book. She does tons of amazing things. All week long she has been creating form the scraps on her work area. I love that, and challenge myself now and again to do it too. Perfect timing, cuz I have a stack literally 3 inches high of paper scraps from projects as far back as Christmas. I know this because the buried papers on my desk are Christmas papers. *palm to forehead* It has been way too long since I cleaned off my desk.

This card was CASE'd from thegreenbeanscrafterole.blogspot.com. Absolutely love all the cutey patootey things she thinks up and creates here. Cards are rare for her, but I loved this one and have kept the picture for inspiration for a while. If you clicked over and checked it out, you see I did very little to change it up. It was so darned cute I didn't want to. Since I was using a punch instead of a die to cut my butterfly I did have to change the orientation just a bit, but that's all. I used (drum roll please) yellow polka dot fabric that I recycled from a gorgeous floral bouquet I had received a while ago. Isn't that doubly cool?!?! Recycling at its finest.

This card was loosely CASE'd from pinterest.com. If you haven't discovered this yet, Yikes, do yourself a favor and stay away. I can kill many valuable crafting hours just perusing pinterest. The inspiration, the ideas, the pictures. Oh my!

Find inspiration everywhere! Go... Create something fun & fabulous. Enjoy!
