Scrappy New Year!!!!!!

Over on the Scrummy Stash cafe blog a fabby challenge has been set to use up your scraps. Well I have huge amounts of scraps, I just can't seem to throw any away! Not just paper and card scraps but ribbon, felt, material, thread etc.
Today's challenge has been set by Karen. It's quite simple.... use up your scraps! We all have stacks of them lying around so dig them out and start creating.

This is what I came up with;




I used some of my very precious Love Elsie paper scraps, a scrap of felt to make the flower and ribbon scraps, I was surprised at how well the rub ons went onto ribbon, I think I will defo be trying that again.

I got inspiration for the ribbon on this card from somewhere but I cannot remember where, that's the problem with blog hopping, I see so much inspiration I forget where it came from!!!
This card is for my daughter who will be 14 in a few weeks. I hope she likes it.

I can't believe you've done this just from scraps it's beautiful! I love how the rubons have gone onto the ribbon..I might be stealing that idea if that's ok..
