I love a good challenge, even when it is self imposed. I love the Splendid day Designer Specialty Designer Series Paper and found that because of mistakes (Oops! That’s not the size I wanted!) and crafting classes that the bits and pieces were stacking up. My challenge - use those bits and pieces. I extended the challenge to cardstock, if at all possible.
My card bases are the out of stock Sale-a-Bration Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam Card bases (I thought that kept with my challenge of using up what I could.) For the first layer I used either the Shimmer White Paper (with the Stitched Greenery Die) or retired Black Glimmer Paper.
I had fun arranging the different shapes and sizes of DSP on the first layer, I adhered this layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card base. Once all were attached I used Soft Sea Foam Ribbon until it ran out, then switched to the Metallic Mesh Ribbon.
The focal point is the Amazing Thanks base cut in Shimmer White bits and pieces. The detailed thanks is cut using bits and pieces of matching card stock.
I cut down some of the card front sized pieces with the Deckle Rectangular Dies and used the left over piece on the inside of some of my cards; other cards have a strip of DSP or black glimmer paper.
I hope you are inspired to pull out your bits and pieces and start designing.
