I am trying this year to reduce the size of my scraps stash - I have so many leftovers from monthly kits and class kits which I save for cardmaking. The pile of 12x12 baggies is getting to silly proportions so I am going to try as much as possible to always reach for the leftovers when cardmaking rather than using new stash.
Supplies
Top card - Bo Bunny papers (not a clue of the range as just scraps left), Woodware scallop punches, EK Success butterfly, Martha Stewart lace punch, Stampin' Up Label, oval and scallop oval punches. Stamps are Penny Black Garden Buggy, SU Perfect punches and HobbyArt New Home sentiment.
Bottom card - the same as above but using American Crafts Letter Box double sided papers and EK Success flower punch, Martha Stewart frond punch.
Thanks for taking a look - I must apologise that the card pictures aren't the greatest, the light is awful here today so I resorted to scanning them to get them uploaded in time.
Lovely cards Karen, that PB stamp is so cute!
