Scraps and Cards

I sorted through all my scraps this weekend and got rid of a lot of useless paper pieces.  Then I cut and sorted further until I was ready to create--this is what I did in just a few hours since everything was already sorted!

More Cards...

The goal was to send 24 all occasion cards as a gift. I already had two made, so in the last three days I have made 22 cards.  Here are the rest of them... I was pulling from the blue/green scrap bin for most of these.

And here they are all boxed up and ready to go. :)

Back in the Groove

Last night after supper I sat down and crafted these little goodies.  (There was one more but the photo didn't turn out)

 I love My Mind's Eye papers, and this is the last of these two patterns. Sad.

This is not my favorite paper, but then I have never been a huge "blue" fan anyway.  Not sure why I bought it, but this is the end of it, too!

Then this morning when I woke up at 4:15, rather than go back to sleep I slipped back into my chair and whipped out these little guys--also the end of the paper.

The little brackets and tags, as well as the blue dots were from a page of punch-out embellishments. I actually used almost all of the sheet before I ran out of paper.  Since I am only making cards these days I didn't bother to keep the last two brackets that were about 10" long--they wouldn't have fit on anything I'd make.

It's Been an AGE!

It has been a long time since I was able to get into my studio, but I finally made it there yesterday and made a couple cards. It takes a while to get into my stride and between a sore back and not really feeling the vibe I didn't last long.

 The two cards on the right were recycled fronts from cards I had made and someone sent back to me. :)  I just took the fronts off and put them on new blanks.  The two on the left were from the scrap bin--which is my favorite way of making cards.

I was apparently in a flowery mood yesterday.
