Wow it has been a really LONG time since I've shared a card with you on here! I just haven't had ANY mojo for cards lately though, ugh. Luckily for me, there's a great card sketch over at Artful Delight this month that inspired me!
Supplies: Crate Paper Paper Heart Collection - Define, Cupid, Delicate, Love Letter; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Walnut Stain; Ali Edwards Stamp Set - Loving Words; EK Success PSN L Butterfly Punch; Stampin' Up! Heart-to-Heart Punch; We R Memory Keepers Corner Chomper
I created a DT layout yesterday (which goes live on the 30th!) and when I was done I made some super cute embellishments with all of the tiny leftover scraps...
It only took me about 15 minutes to make these 10 embellishments and now I can just pop one on a project at any time. It rocks! I'm planning on doing this from now on because it saves me time plus uses up my scraps (which is always a good thing because I have WAY too many). ;) What do you do with your scraps?? I'd love any tips or tricks to use up some more of mine so feel free to share!

Hi April - what a beautiful card! I love the color and that butterfly embellie is adorable. Great idea to make up some extra embellishment while the scraps were out - love them! Thanks for sharing with us at Frosted Designs!
Your cards are gorgeous! I especially love the first one. So glad you could join us in our card challenge at Artful Delight.

I was inspired by Shimelle Laine to put my scraps in a big basket. I often go to the basket before the bigger pieces of paper and see what I can use up. I have so many, too!
